Ingredients
1 pack of Quorn Meatless Grounds (frozen, 12 oz) or equivalent in refrigerated Grounds)
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp cornflour
16oz frozen pizza dough, defrosted
1 tbsp fajita seasoning
2/3 cup mozzarella, grated
1/2 red pepper, finely sliced
1/8 cup sliced pickled jalapenos
2/3 cup passata or pizza sauce
1/4 cup vegetarian parmesan, grated
Cilantro as garnish (optional)
Sweet corn (optional)
Method
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Coat a 10 inch cake tin with 1 tbsp oil.
Dust the cornflour onto a clean work surface. Place the pizza dough on top and roll out in to a roughly 12 inch circle, approximately ½ inch thick. Drape the dough over the cake tin and lightly press it into all corners, leaving a roughly ¾ inch side going around the whole pan. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, place a frying pan on a medium heat. Add the remaining oil, Quorn Grounds and fajita seasoning and fry for 4-5 minutes. Set aside.
Remove from the oven and top the pizza with a layer of mozzarella, Quorn Grounds, sliced red peppers and jalapenos. Cover with a layer of pizza sauce or passata and sprinkle with vegetarian parmesan. Transfer back to the oven and back for a further 15 minutes or until risen and golden. Garnish with cilantro to serve.
Tip: Add sweet corn for an extra pop of vegetables.
