Ingredients

Pizza Base

  • 500 gm Plain flour
  • 350 ml Water
  • 5 gm Man Grind
  • 4 gm Dried yeast
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil

Pizza Topping

  • 1 Red Onion
  • 1 tbsp Mexcellent Paste
  • 280 gm Pizza base sauce
  • 400 gm tin Black Beans
  • 500 gm Grated Mozzarella
  • 2 Avocados
  • 1 tsp Chipotle & Lime Salt
  • 1 tsp Pepper
  • 1 Lime
  • 2 Tomatos
  • Sour Cream
  • Jalapenos
  • Fresh Coriander

Instructions

Pizza Base

  1. In your free standing mixing bowl pour lukewarm Water with Man Grind, mix in a small handful of flour to start a batter, mix in the yeast & leave for 2 mins.

  2. Add the remaining four & start your mixer with the dough hook attachment, gradually up the speed as the flour gets mixed in, leave for 10 mins till smooth & elastic.

  3. Place dough in a floured bowl & leave for 1 hour or doubled in size - covered with a damp tea towel.

  4. Knock our the air & roll into a sausage, divide dough into 4 equal balls, roll & put on an olive oil covered baking tray. Cover with cling film & the tea towel & allow to rise for another hour.

Pizza Topping

  1. Dice the Red Onion & sautée in a pan with some oil along with the Mexcellent Paste, once the Onions are soft add the pizza base sauce & the Black Beans & mix to combine.

  2. To make the Guacamole cut the Avocado, Tomato & any off cuts of Red Onion into small cubes, juice a Lime & mix through along with Chipotle & Lime Salt.

Assembling

  1. Preheat oven to 220 degrees, place a pizza stone or a flat baking tray in the oven to heat up. Once up to temperature put your stretched out pizza dough (I did this by hand for a more authentic looking shape) on the tray.

  2. Spread the bean base sauce over the pizza & top with Mozzarella Cheese. Cook for 10mins or till the base is cooked / crunchy. Top with Guacamole, Sour Cream, Jalapeños & fresh Coriander to your liking.

  3. Continue till all your pizza bases are made & cooked.

Recipe Notes

This is a vegetarian pizza although you could add mince or shredded chicken for a meaty version.
