Zucchini pizza from zucchini in the oven

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make zucchini pizza from zucchini in the oven? Prepare the necessary ingredients. I took boiled and smoked pork, any sausage, ham will do. Parsley can be replaced with dill or green onions.

2. Step 2:

   

   Which zucchini will work best? Choose young fruits with tender skins. Wash them and peel them. It is not necessary to cut off a very thin skin. If you use more mature zucchini, cut off the rough peel and cut out the middle. Grate the zucchini on a coarse grater, squeeze out excess juice.

3. Step 3:

   

   Transfer the squash mass to a bowl of suitable size. Add eggs and salt. Stir until smooth.

4. Step 4:

   

   Wash the greens, dry them, finely chop them.

5. Step 5:

   

   Add the greens to the dough, mix.

6. Step 6:

   

   Sift flour mixed with baking powder into a bowl, add semolina, mix well. The amount of flour can be more or less. It all depends on its properties. Therefore, sift a little more flour in case you have to add it. Focus on the desired consistency of the dough. It should be thick, like pancakes. If the dough is not thick enough, add another spoonful of flour.

7. Step 7:

   

   Cover the bowl with the dough with a towel and leave for 20 minutes so that the gluten in the flour will disperse and the semolina will swell.

8. Step 8:

   

   Cut the meat (or sausage) into thin slices.

9. Step 9:

   

   Grate the cheese on a fine or coarse grater. Any cheese that melts well will do. You can use a mixture of hard cheese and mozzarella.

11. Step 10:

    

    The dough will noticeably thicken, become less fluid and more viscous.

12. Step 11:

    

    It is convenient to use a special baking dish for pizza. I have a regular detachable d = 22 cm. Cover the form with parchment. Regardless of the quality of the parchment, lubricate it with vegetable oil so that it is easier to remove it after baking.

13. Step 12:

    

    Sprinkle the dough evenly on top with basil or any aromatic herbs to taste. A mixture of Provencal, Italian herbs will do.

14. Step 13:

    

    Lay out the meat slices.

15. Step 14:

    

    Take tomatoes dense, fleshy, so that when slicing and baking they retain their shape well. Then the pizza will be more accurate. Wash the tomato, dry it, cut it into circles with a sharp knife. Put the tomato slices on the meat.

16. Step 15:

    

    Sprinkle the pizza evenly with grated cheese on top.

17. Step 16:

    

    Bake the squash pizza in a preheated 180C oven for about 25 minutes. The baking time and temperature may differ from the specified one, since everyone's ovens work differently. Consider the specifics of your technique. How to check readiness? If a ruddy cheese crust has formed on top, and the dough has seized from below, the edges have turned golden, then the pizza is ready. Remove the pizza mold from the oven and let it cool down a little.

18. Step 17:

    

    After cooling, transfer the pizza to a plate, cut into pieces and serve. Enjoy your meal!
