QUINOA PIZZA CRUST


The best pizza ever 

Makes one 8-inch pizza  or 3 x 10-20cm

For the base

generous 1 cup quinoa
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons dried mixed herbs (I use herbes de Provence and oregano)
sprinkling of chili 
flakessalt

For the toppings

2-3 tablespoons tomato paste4 tomatoesand more and more


Soak the quinoa overnight or for about 8 hours in cold water. The best way to do thisis to put the quinoa in a large bowl and cover it with water, making sure that it’scovered by a few inches. Then leave this to one side.Once you’re ready to make the pizza, preheat the oven to 230 °C.Drain any water left in the quinoa bowl, before putting the quinoa into a foodprocessor with the apple cider vinegar, herbs, chili flakes and salt. Blend for a fewminutes until a smooth dough forms—it should look a bit like a pancake mix.Grease the bottom of an 8-inch pizza pan or cake pan with olive oil and pour the mixin, then bake for about 15–20 minutes, until the base is firm—it cooks pretty quicklythough.For the toppingsRemove the pizza base and add your toppings. Either place the pizza back in the ovenfor a few minutes to warm them or enjoy your toppings raw!
