How to Make Flourless Carrot Pizza
Grating the peeled carrots on a coarse grater.
Cracking a chicken egg.
Adding quick-cooking rolled oats.
Thoroughly wash the carrots with a brush and peel them with a vegetable peeler. Grate the peeled carrots on a coarse grater.
Season the carrots with salt to taste. Crack in a chicken egg.
Mix the carrots with the egg. Add the quick-cooking rolled oats.
Mixing the ingredients well.
Heating a heavy-bottomed skillet, 20-22 centimeters in diameter.
Cooking for 8 minutes over low heat, then flipping the base like a Spanish tortilla.
Mix the ingredients well. Let it sit for a few minutes so the oats can absorb the moisture.
Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet, 20-22 centimeters (about 8-9 inches) in diameter. Pour in a tablespoon of vegetable oil. Spoon the carrot mixture into the skillet, spreading it with a spoon and pressing it down to form a flat pancake – the base for the carrot pizza.
Cover the skillet with a lid. Cook for 8 minutes over low heat, then flip the base like a Spanish tortilla. Place a large plate of a suitable diameter over the skillet. Flip the pizza onto the plate, then slide it back into the skillet with the cooked side up.
Shredding the boiled chicken.
Shred the boiled chicken. Arrange the chicken pieces over the base, spreading them evenly.
Sprinkling the pizza with chopped herbs, about a tablespoon is needed.
Arranging the mozzarella slices on the pizza.
Placing the pepper strips on top.
Finely chop a few sprigs of parsley or dill. Sprinkle the pizza with the chopped herbs; you’ll need about a tablespoon. You can substitute parsley with fresh green basil. Just remember to sprinkle fresh green basil on the pizza after it’s cooked.
Slice the mini mozzarella balls into thin rounds. Arrange the mozzarella slices on the pizza. Mozzarella is a diet-friendly cheese that melts easily.
Cut the flesh of the red bell pepper into long, thin strips. Place the pepper strips on top. If you like spicy food, you can replace the sweet bell pepper with chili pepper.
Serving hot, drizzled with a diet-friendly tomato puree or ketchup.
Sprinkle the pizza with ground red and black pepper or sweet paprika. Cover with a lid and cook for about 5 more minutes, until the cheese has completely melted. Serve hot, drizzled with a diet-friendly tomato puree or ketchup.
And there you have it – a delicious and guilt-free pizza that's as good for you as it is tasty! This Flourless Carrot Pizza is a testament to how creative cooking can transform healthy ingredients into something truly special. Don't be afraid to experiment with your favorite toppings – mushrooms, olives, or different herbs would all be wonderful additions.
