INGREDIENTS
350g Cauliflower
1 Egg
20g Parmesan Cheese
62g Tomato Sauce
2 oz Fresh Mozzarella
10g Fresh Basil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice.
Steam or microwave the riced cauliflower until tender (about 4-5 minutes), then let cool slightly. Place the cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large bowl, combine the drained cauliflower, egg, and grated Parmesan. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Mix well until the mixture binds together.
Transfer the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and press into a thin, even circle to form the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust starts to turn golden along the edges.
Remove the crust from the oven. Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the crust, then top with slices or torn pieces of fresh mozzarella.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves, slice, and serve immediately.
