White pizza margherita with crispy base
06Sep

White pizza margherita

My blogger friend Amanda gave me this idea to make a #dirtypizzaparty to get all of our guilty pleasures on top of one base (or two. or three). This pizza party is transatlantic btw so i had this 12″ margherita to myself. She reiterated the pizza had to have your favourite, guilty food as a topping. And loads of it. Consequently cheese, which means the topping is pure cheese with a touch of cherry tomatoes. Pizza for me is all about simplicity, the way to my heart is a thin crispy margherita, simple and crunchy. The base in my opinion can make or break a pizza. This challenge by Amanda push me outside of my comfort zone because I rarely make bread and have never made a pizza base before. No, correction – I have attempted it before but ti doesn’t even bear thinking about it. The shape on my white pizza base turned out very “rustic” but the texture was really amazing, when rolled to half an inch it bakes like heaven. White pizza margherita (makes 2 12” pizzas) for the base: 300g plain flour 7g dried active yeast 1 tsp salt 1 tbsp olive oil 200ml warm water 1.

Minute steak sandwich with plum chutney

As a student nurse I have been doing placements in several different offices and hospitals and right now I am based at an office. Unlike hospitals the working hours and the pace at a clinic are a lot more slow paced, which I love, however it leaves a lot of spare time to ‘’pop’’ to the kitchen and rummage the cupboards for biscuits and cake during both the morning and afternoon munchies. You often don’t find any and in days like that my munchies make me walk 2 miles to get a vanilla crown at a nearby bakery. Often someone will bring a few baked goods and leave it in the kitchen for everyone but the only treat this week was a massive box of Victoria plums from someone’s garden. No vanilla crown I’ll tell you.  On their own they are not my favourite afternoon snack. Unless they were in a cake. But their little translucent skins looked so beautiful I couldn’t help myself and picked up a few, all this recipes flashing through my brain. I think most people would have chosen to do something sweet with plums but my brain immediately thought: chutney. I love chutney and I have mentioned before
