Preparation Time 5 – 10 minutes
Cooking Time 10 – 15 minutes
Serves 4 – 6
Ingredients:
Pizza Style Base:
2/3 Romanesco (remove large amounts of the stalks, using mainly just the heads)
Handful of parsley – stalks removed
Zest of half a lemon
Generous glug of rapeseed oil
Sprinkle of sea salt flakes
Generous sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper
2 Banana shallots – peeled and sliced into thin rings
30g finely grated Manchego
Extra drizzle of rapeseed oil
Topping:
1 large ball of burrata (around 250g)
Handful of basil leaves
1 stalk of dill – roughly chopped
1 tbsp of toasted almonds (optional)
Generous sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper to serve
Method:
Begin by preheating your oven to 220 degrees Celsius. In a food processor, or using a hand blender, add the roughly chopped Romanesco, parsley, lemon zest, seasoning and rapeseed oil to the blend and blitz until you have a fine crumb that begins to stick together. In a small frying pan add a glug of oil plus your chopped shallots and allow to sweat down over a low heat until soft and sticky. Once cooked gently combine the shallots with the blitzed Romanesco and add in two-thirds of the grated Manchego. Have a taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary.
Next, arrange the Romanesco mixture into a pizza-like shape on a nonstick tray or parchment paper, making sure it sticks together and isn’t too thick. Sprinkle over the remaining third of Manchego and place in the oven for 7-10 minutes or until it starts to crisp around the edges and turn a little golden.
Next, simply arrange your Burrata on top then return to the oven for 2-3 minutes to allow to Burrata to heat through a little. Once cooked and just prior to serving sprinkle over the fresh basil leaves and dill, add a little extra black pepper and drizzle some oil and serve.
