Wild Mushrooms Pizzettes Recipe

 

Ingredients

  • 45ml/3 tbsp olive oil

  • 350g/12 oz fresh mixed wild mushrooms, washed and sliced

  • 2 shallots, chopped

  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

  • 30ml/2 tbsp chopped fresh mixed thyme and flat leaf parsley

  • 1 quantity Basic Pizza Dough

  • 40g/1 1/2oz grated Gruyere cheese

  • 30ml/2 tbsp freshly grated Parmesan

  • salt and ground black pepper

Serves 4


Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 220C. Heat 30ml/2 tbsp of the oil in a frying pan and fry the mushrooms, shallots and garlic over a moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until all the juices have evaporated.

  2. Stir in half the herbs and seasoning, then set aside to cool.

  3. Divide the dough into fours pieces and roll out each one on a lightly floured surface to 13cm circle. Place well apart on two greased baking sheets, then push up the dough edges to form a thin rim.

  4. Brush the pizza bases with the remaining oil and top with the wild mushrooms mixture.

  5. Mix together the Gruyere and Parmesan, then sprinkle over. Bake for 15-20 minutes until crisp and golden.

  6. Remove from the oven and scatter over the remaining herbs to serve.

Notes: If you cannot find wild mushrooms, a mixture of cultivated mushrooms, such as shiitake, oyster and chestnut, would do just as well.
