QUICK BREAD PIZZA RECIPE

Steps:

• To make Quick Bread Pizza, preheat the oven to 200 C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease with little oil.
• We will firstly make the Tomato Basil Pasta Sauce to spread on the toast. Boil the tomatoes in hot water. Once the skin starts peeling out, take them out.
• Peel the skin off the tomatoes, remove the core of the tomato and roughly chop them.
• Do keep all the juices the tomatoes release, this will add body to the tomato sauce. Keep the chopped tomatoes aside.
• In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and onions. Stir for a few seconds until it begins to sizzle in the oil and the onions soften.
• At this stage, add in the chopped tomatoes and the roughly chopped basil leaves, some salt, sugar, black pepper corns and stir to combine well.
• We will now use a hand blender to coarsely puree the ingredients together to get a saucy texture.
• Cover the pan with the lid slightly ajar and simmer the mixture for 20 to 30 minutes until the sauce is thick. The basil tomato sauce is ready.
• Next, slit the bread or burger buns in half horizontally. Spread the spoonful of pizza sauce on bread slices. Add the chopped onion, tomatoes and sweet corns on the bread slice.
• Next season with oregano, chilli flakes, black pepper and salt. Sprinkle the grated cheese over each slice and finally drizzle olive oil over the topping.
• Arrange the bread slices on a baking tray and grill in the oven for few minutes till the cheese melts and the bread crust turns slightly crispy from the sides. Turn off the oven. Remove the bread slices from the oven.
