Pizza is a kind of open cake, one of those culinary inventions that have spread around the world. The fact is that due to the variety of fillings and options for making the dough, each person can choose for himself a recipe that he will like the most.
At home, the easiest way to cook pizza is in the microwave. The advantages of this cooking method are many. Firstly, baking pizza in the microwave is much faster than in the oven. Secondly, the dough for such a pizza does not require a long proofing, it can be cut almost immediately after the end of the batch. One caveat - the dough for baking in the microwave oven should be less steep, that is, the flour goes into it a little less than usual.
There are a huge number of cooking options for dishes such as pizza in the microwave. But in any case, you should first bake the base. To prepare the test, you can use the following recipe:
Take 100 ml of warm water and stir in it half a spoonful of sugar and a teaspoon of yeast. We cover the dishes with a napkin and leave in a warm place for about ten minutes, until the yeast rises. Then we sift the flour (150 grams) over the bowl, collect it with a slide and make a recess in the center, into which we pour the raised yeast, olive oil and add a pinch of salt. Knead the uncooked dough, and leave it for 10-15 minutes.
Now roll out the dough to fit the shape. If there is no form, then you can spread the dough on a flat plate, only you need to make sure that the dishes are suitable for use in a microwave oven, that is, did not have metallized parts.
A bake cake at full capacity is needed for 2.5-3 minutes, depending on the type of oven.
Then take out the form, spread the filling on the basis obtained and put it back into the oven for a couple of minutes. And which one to choose? Here you can show imagination. The easiest option is tomato, sausage and cheese slices.
Microwave pizza can be prepared with seafood, mushrooms, vegetables, salami, cheese. In a word, you can’t count all the options! You can endlessly invent your own fillings, or you can use the classic options.
For example, Neapolitan microwave pizza is cooked like this. Two finely chopped onions and a clove of garlic are fried in two tablespoons of olive oil. When preparing the filling in the microwave, oil with vegetables must be heated for five minutes, mixing twice during this time. Then get the dishes and add 150 grams of tomato paste there, mixing it with hot onions. On the prepared basis for pizza we apply the prepared tomato mass. Then we grate 250 grams of mazzarella on a grater and mix the grated cheese with two teaspoons of dry oregano. Pour cheese on the tomato mass, and lay on top 50 grams of anchovy fillet, canned in oil. Put in the oven for 2-3 minutes.
Seafood lovers will love the fish pizza in the microwave. The dough recipe for this pizza is similar, but to prepare the filling, finely chop two hundred grams of crab sticks and pickle them in apple cider vinegar for five minutes. Boil a small squid, peel it, cut and add to the crab sticks. Cut boiled carrots into slices, chop greens and finely chop 50 grams of pickled champignons. Grind 100 grams of canned tuna and pour fish with a spoon of olive oil. Grease the prepared pizza base with horseradish sauce, put the tuna and chopped mushrooms. Pour the filling again with horseradish sauce and put the mixture of squid and crab sticks. Top with circles of carrots and sprinkle with herbs. Bake pizza in the microwave for five minutes.
