Makes: 1 large pizza base (or two medium ones)
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
1 medium whole cauliflower head
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp chilli flakes
1 egg
pinch of salt
pinch of pepper
2 tbsp cheddar cheese, grated
Directions:
- Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees celsius.
- Using a grater, grate the cauliflower into "rice". This step can also be done by adding the cauliflower to a food processor and blend until a rice like consistency.
- Add the cauliflower into a microwave safe bowl with a couple tablespoons of water. Cover with cling wrap and pierce a few holes in the top with a fork. Place into the microwave for 10 minutes to steam.
- Once the cauliflower is steamed, you need to draw out the excess water using a microfibre cloth. **NOTE - wait until this is cooled slightly! The water that will draw out is boiling!
- Add the cauliflower back into the bowl and add the garlic, dried oregano, chilli flakes, egg, salt, pepper and cheese. Mix well and work the mixture.
- Shape the mixture in a thin circle onto a lined baking tray. Place into the oven for 30 minutes.
- Add your toppings and place back into the oven for a further 10 minutes!
