Lebanese Pizza Recipes

LEBANESE BREAD PIZZAS

Steps:

• Pre-heat fan forced oven to 180°C.
• Place cubed sweet potato in microwave safe bowl and cover with hot water. Cover bowl and cook in microwave for about 4 - 5 minutes or until just tender. Stir half way through cooking.
• Lay out Lebanese breads on ungreased oven trays and spread tomato paste or pizza sauce onto them.
• Wash silverbeet well and slice out centre vein. Chop roughly and line the bottom of the pizzas with as much or as little as you like.
• Drain sweet potato and place cubes evenly on pizzas.
• Place as much pepperoni and ham as you like on each pizza. (I usually use about 8 slices of pepperoni for each one).
• Next goes the tomato wedges.
• Place the cubed feta in the gaps on the pizzas. (You can layer the feta and tomato on the pepperoni if there isn't enough room).
• Sprinkle the top of each pizza with pizza cheese.
• Bake in oven for about 15 minutes or until the top browns slightly.
• 1 pizza per person as a general rule. Keeps well for a couple of days in the fridge and can be reheated in the microwave.
• TIP: It's also nice to just spread garlic butter on the bread and toast in the oven.

LEBANESE OLIVE PIZZA

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 225 C (425F).
• Spread tomato paste even over leabanese bread and top with grated mozzarella, followed by evenly spaced olives.
• Sprinkle herbs over the top.
• Bake in oven for 10 - 15 minutes (check after 10, it doesn't take long).
• Allow to rest a few minutes before cutting and serving.
