Well g’day! Here’s a pizza to take you to culinary heights beyond the norm
Let’s buy a base, prodotto in Italia 🍅 🇮🇹
Made with 💘 love! Available widely
Now assemble your chopping board! Bananas cut lengthways finely, a squeeze of fresh lime, Italian style herbs, mozzarella, Double Gloucester cheese, 2 sliced tomatos, fine sliced pack beetroot, black olives, smoked mackerel, shrimps, cockles & mussels
Wow hey? 😳
Neat! Now address your base with a first layer of cheese and place in heated oven gas 7 for a few minutes to melt, add herbs, middle shelf, twist once, leave the oven on
Now place on plate carefully and build the pizza up lovingly layer by layer, don’t hurry, the tide takes its time! 🦈🌊🌊
We are attempting to create six wheel spokes so tomatoes then banana then beetroot, take a photo!
Pizza wants as little mousture as possible so drain the beet, squeeze the wet fish, take away the tomato water for best result
Now I’m going to sprinkle the cockles & mussels, shrimps and small tasty chunks of mackerel on
A nifty squeeze of fresh lime tears over the fish to pronounce the flavour profile
Add tiny strips of mozza and a light dusting of Gloucester, not too much as the flavours in this are very subtle, herbs to garnish and spokes of black olives, as many as you like 😊
Ok! Mind the heat, place on middle oven shelf as is, no tray
Keep watch, turn once, when it looks ready give a final minute, switch oven off, rest 20 seconds, extreme care sliding pizza onto waiting dinner plate using oven glove
Looka dat!! 🍕🐟 👀
Take a picture and feel achieved! A pro gourmet pizza! 🍕
I allowed to rest 7 minutes before slicing as the trick here is the incredible flavours must melt and blend 😋
Ocean in Motion Pizza pro! 🐟
This takes your skills and tastebuds to a new level! The soft fleshy beetroot blends with the molten banana to highlight yet soften the four fish and the olives are tiara!
Tip: run a spoke of peas or canned pineapple down alongside the banana slices
I haven’t used anchovy as I wanted the mackerel to remain the strongest flavour altho nothing overpowers, it is my finest ingredients combo ever! Every taste is subtle but the real whammy here is the myriad of texture from the squidgy lush banana to the meaty mackerel chunks, plenty of herbs! 🌿
A finger bowl and napkin will be of advantage
Check out my Battle of the Ciders for best food/drink pairing but if you prefer wine this wants a crisp chilled Chenin Blanc, the perfect backdrop to merge this might! Nothing else will work 🥂
Congrats on becoming a gourmet pizza pro!
For added dynamite trickle tiny cardamon seeds onto your spokes but don’t go overboard! ⛵🌊
Cheers!! 🤤
