INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cauliflower (107g)
1 large Egg (50g)
3 ounces Part-skim Mozzarella Cheese (85g)
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce (62g)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (75g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (4.5g)
Handful of Fresh Basil Leaves (5g)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice. Steam or microwave the processed cauliflower for about 5 minutes until soft, then let it cool.
Place the cooled cauliflower in a clean towel and squeeze out excess moisture. Transfer to a bowl and mix in 1 beaten egg, salt, and pepper to form a dough-like consistency.
Spread the cauliflower mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, shaping it into a thin, even round crust. Bake for about 15 minutes until the edges start to turn golden.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly over it. Scatter the cherry tomatoes and sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 7-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
