Potato Goat Cheese And Green Onion Pizza Recipes

POTATO, GOAT CHEESE, CARAMELIZED ONION AND CHERRY TOMATO PIZZA

Steps:

• For the dough: In a small bowl, combine the yeast with the sugar and 3/4 cup warm water. Let sit for 10 minutes until it begins to foam.
• In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour and salt and make a well in the center. Add the yeast mixture and the olive oil. Using a fork, incorporate the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients until a dough forms. On a lightly floured surface, continue to work and then knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
• Lightly coat a clean bowl with additional olive oil and add the dough, turning once to coat the dough in oil. Cover and set in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Punch down the dough and divide it into 2 pieces, using 1 piece for the pizza. Wrap the remaining dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate or freeze for another pizza.
• For the pizza: Stretch the dough into a 12-inch circle that will fit on the grill pan. Add the dough to the hot grill pan and cook until stiff and bubbles start to form, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until grill marks form and the dough is completely cooked through, 1 to 2 more minutes.
• Transfer the crust to a baking sheet and top the pizza with the onions, potatoes, tomatoes and goat cheese. Add the loaded pizza to the oven and cook until the cheese melts, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve immediately.

POTATO, GOAT CHEESE AND GREEN ONION PIZZA

Steps:

• Slice up the potatoes thin. I used my mandolin and it worked perfect.
• Then put the potato slices in a bowl and salt them, toss to coat. Then cover with water and put in the fridge for an hour.
• Once the hour is up, remove the potatoes from the water and lay them out on paper towels to dry. Pat the tops dry if it is humid in your house.
• Put the shelf in your oven up to at least the middle of the oven, otherwise the bottom of the crust might burn. Preheat your oven to 450-500'F. You need it good and hot.
• While they are drying prepare your favourite pizza crust.
• Once you have the crust on the pizza pan pour some of the olive oil on the top of the crust and with your hands, spread it around and cover the whole pizza.
• Place the potatoes around the pizza like you would pepperoni. Then add the green onion, garlic rosemary mixture, salt and pepper and 3/4 of the goat's cheese.
• Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the pizza toppings and bake for 15-18 minutes. Check it half way through to make sure the bottom isn't burning too much, if it is then put the shelf up higher in the oven.
• Check it to make sure the potatoes are softened.
• Remove from oven and sprinkle the rest of the goats cheese on top. If you can't serve it right away cover with a piece of heavy tin foil.
• Bon Appetit!
