Homemade pizza with potatoes. Pizza with potatoes and smoked ham

Today we have pizza with potatoes. Previously, it seemed to me that this would not happen. Then, when I accidentally came across such a recipe in a magazine, I was surprised. And recently I found out that in Italy they prepare this kind of pizza along with other types.

For our country, such pizza is also a godsend: we always have potatoes and flour. Or almost always... Pizza is also good because it never tastes bad (well, if cooked correctly), and children adore it.

What's good for adults? That you don’t need to stand at the stove for a long time. If this is your main goal, then you can use frozen pizza dough, then you won’t have to fuss with this pizza for a long time. The pun turned out...

The secret of pizza lies in the imagination of the one who cooks it, I recently read in some article. We can say that our imagination has passed us by today, but the taste turned out to be excellent anyway.

Ingredients

For the test:

  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1.5 cups flour
  • 2 tsp. dry yeast
  • 130 ml warm water
  • 1 tbsp. Sahara
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil

For filling:

  • 2 large potatoes
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • A few sprigs of rosemary
  • Salt, black pepper
  • Bow (optional)

Preparation

If your dough is ready, then you will skip this step. I usually make quick pizza dough using this recipe.

First, dissolve the dry yeast with salt and sugar in warm water, wait for the yeast to rise for about a quarter of an hour (I cover it with film) and make sure that there is no draft. Then add flour, olive oil, knead the dough and turn on the oven.

Move the dough closer to the oven so that it rises warm.

While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. Wash, peel the potatoes and cut into small circles, as thin as possible.

Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the potatoes until golden brown.

You can take the onion, peel, wash, cut into half rings and also fry until transparent.

Peel and chop the garlic.

Add a pinch of rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper to the potatoes.

Place the dough on a baking sheet greased with vegetable oil.

From this amount of dough I got 2 pizza circles. Therefore, I made one without onions, and the second with onions.

After the filling is spread out, sprinkle a little more rosemary.

And put in the oven at 200 degrees for 15 minutes.

Serve immediately after oven.

The pizza with potatoes turned out to be more tender, and the one with onions was juicier.

You can, of course, add cheese as usual. In the magazine where I saw a similar recipe, they recommend smoked brisket, which needs to be fried before putting it on the pizza. I think that if you don’t count calories, then you can safely fantasize.

We liked this option, it turned out better than I expected. I highly recommend trying this test. Pizza with potatoes - that's our way! May the Italians forgive me.

And if you live in Kazan, then you can order pizza around the clock to your home, work or office. To do this, just make an order at Restoratti.

Step 1: prepare the sauce.

First you need to prepare the vegetables. To do this, peel the onion and garlic, rinse under running water and place on a cutting board. Using a knife, finely chop the onion to 7 millimeters and transfer it to a plate or other container. Afterwards, cut the garlic into very small pieces up to 5 millimeters in size and add to the onion. We wash the tomatoes under running water, then dry them with paper kitchen towels and place them on a cutting board. Using a knife, we cut off the place where the fruit was attached to the plant. And chop it into large pieces up to 3 - 4 centimeters. Next, turn the stove temperature to medium level. Add the required amount of vegetable oil to an enamel pan and place it on the burner. Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and garlic into a container. Fry them for 2 - 3 minutes until translucent, stirring with a kitchen spatula. Then add sugar, Italian dry spices, salt and ground black pepper. Afterwards, mix everything thoroughly with a spatula until smooth. Place tomato paste and balsamic vinegar into a saucepan. Mix all ingredients again and cook for 5 minutes. And then we throw the tomato slices and bay leaves into the pan. Bring the sauce to a boil and reduce the temperature. Simmer the sauce for approx. 50 - 60 minutes, stirring it occasionally with a spatula. During this time it should acquire a thick consistency.

Step 2: prepare the potatoes.

While our sauce is being prepared, let's cook the potatoes. We wash the root vegetables under running water and remove the peel with a special knife for peeling vegetables or a regular knife. Then we place them on a cutting board and cut them into several pieces. Next, turn on the second burner to high temperature. Pour water into the pan, add salt and transfer the potato wedges into a container with cold salted water. Then put the pan on the stove and bring the liquid to a boil. After the water has begun to boil, reduce the temperature of the stove, close the pan with a lid and cook the potatoes for about 20 - 30 minutes until fully prepared.

Step 3: form the potato base.

Drain the water from the pot with the potatoes and, using a potato masher, mash the root vegetable until pureed. Next, wash the eggs under running water to remove various contaminants. Break the shell and pour the liquid into a small plate. Using a whisk, beat the eggs until smooth. Add flour, beaten eggs to the puree and knead the dough into a ball with your hands.

Step 4: bake the potato base.

Grease a round mold with vegetable oil and transfer the potato dough into it. Using your hands, distribute the dough along the bottom of the container, giving it the shape of the future base. Next, preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Use a fork to make several holes in the base and remove from baking, literally on 10 minutes until a golden crust forms on the surface. We take the golden potato dough out of the oven and you can start adding toppings to our pizza.

Step 5: form the pizza.

Grease the pizza base with the prepared tomato sauce. Then grind the cheese. If you use hard cheese, then it is better to grate it, but if you use soft cheese, then simply cut it into pieces of arbitrary shape. Place the cheese on the tomato base in a chaotic manner.

Step 6: bake the pizza.

Place the formed pizza into the hot oven to bake for 5-7 minutes. During this time, the cheese will have time to melt and the potato dough will be completely cooked. We take the finished pizza out of the oven and can be served.

Step 7: Serve potato and tomato pizza.

Before serving, pizza can be sprinkled with finely chopped herbs. Cut into portions and serve hot.

Bon appetit!

If you do not have free time to prepare the sauce, you can replace it with a ready-made one.

Mozzarella is considered the ideal cheese for pizza, but any other cheese of your choice, both hard and soft, will do.

Potatoes can be easily checked for doneness with a knife or fork. If the equipment easily enters the vegetable, then it is cooked; if not, cook for another 5 minutes. And again we check readiness.

Dissolve the yeast in water and leave for 10 minutes so that the yeast is all dispersed in the water. Mix flour, semolina, salt, olive oil, add water with yeast and knead into a smooth dough. Leave for half an hour to rise, then put in the refrigerator overnight. Since 4 pizzas at once is a lot for us, I divide the dough in half and then put it in the refrigerator. I use one part the next day, the other over the next 2-3 days. I didn't hold it any longer. Sometimes I freeze the dough
The next day, take the dough out of the refrigerator 1 hour before baking and knead it. Preheat the oven to the highest temperature. At the same time, place the baking sheet on the lowest level of the oven and warm it up along with the oven. The pan must be very hot, due to this we achieve better results when baking pizza (similar to baking on a stone).
Take the dough out of the bowl and knead it a little with your hands. Divide into 4 equal pieces (if you made the entire portion of dough), cover and leave to rest for 10 minutes.
We peel the potatoes; if the potatoes are young, you can just wash them well and not peel them. Grate onto discs no more than 1 mm thick. It was glowing for me


Roll out the dough to a thickness of 3-4 mm. Transfer to baking paper. You can roll it out directly on baking paper.


Salt and pepper the sour cream, add a little herbs if desired and mix. Grate the cheese.
Grease the dough with sour cream, spread the potatoes in a circle. The potatoes should not be too close to each other, otherwise they will not bake. Salt and pepper. Drizzle with a little olive oil. And sprinkle with cheese. A handful of freshly grated Parmesan is plenty.


Carefully drag the baking paper with the pizza onto the baking sheet. Be careful, don't get burned!!! And put it on the lowest level in the oven. Bake for approximately 5-10 minutes. The pizza cooks quickly. If the baking paper starts to burn due to the high temperature, then after 2-3 minutes, when the pizza is baked, simply pull out the baking paper.
While the pizza is baking, heat 1 tbsp in a frying pan. l. oil and fry smoked ham on both sides.


Let cool slightly and cut into pieces. Remove the pizza from the oven, sprinkle with ham and herbs. This is how thin the pizza turns out
