Pizza, Pizza! {Fiorentina}



I made pizza fiorentina!
,
It's so simple, looks great, & can be pretty healthy.
,
Spread a generous amount of tomato puree on a pizza base (if you're fancy, make your own. I just used a shop-bought base).
Get a bunch of spinach & remove some of the larger stalks. Microwave for a minute & then pat dry to remove excess water.
Arrange spinach over the pizza, along with some tomatoes & cheese to your taste. I had a sundried tomato & feta deli mix in the fridge so I used a couple of handfuls of this.
Bake for 6-8 mins. Remove from oven, make a small indentation on the pizza with the back of a spoon, & then crack an egg into it.
Bake for a further 10 mins or until the egg has just set. If other parts of the pizza start to burn, place foil lightly over them while the egg continues to cook.
Season with sea salt & black pepper.
Have fun experimenting - next time I might add some currants & toasted pine nuts!

When The Moon Hits Your Eye Like A Big Pizza Pie, THAT'S Amore!


The aforementioned pizza from yesterday's post. Ate over the FT's Life & Arts section from last weekend, & china by Rob Ryan.

Recipe Card:
pizza base (ready-made is fine)
2 red-skinned potatoes
mozzarella
rosemary
seasoning
olive oil (optional)

This is actually a pretty healthy meal* - those ready-made pizza bases (mine was from Waitrose) - a large is only 450 cals & 4.5g fat, & I used lo-cal mozzarella too..

~Thinly slice the potatoes (about 3-5mm), & boil for 7-8 mins. You don't want them to be over-cooked so that they fall apart when you pick them up with a fork.
~Layer with strips of mozzarella onto your pizza base.
~Scatter liberally with rosemary, crushed black pepper, & sea salt.
~Drizzle with olive oil if desired.
~Cook as per the instructions on your pizza base packaging.

Bon appetit!


*particularly when compared with the ostrich burger & churros i had for lunch.
