What to do if you really, really want toto make a pizza, but the oven doesn't work. Or it's just summer, it's just hot, and the mere thought of the oven being on is enough to make you faint. Or we're relaxing at a dacha, at a tourist camp, or even as savages with a tent in the forest or on the river bank. There's no oven! But we want pizza! And even to reheat a ready-made (purchased) pizza, we need an oven or a microwave. So what to do? There is a way out! The person who invented the recipe for making pizza in a frying pan wished to remain anonymous. However, it is highly likely that he or she was not an Italian. After all, the recipe for pizza in a frying pan is barbarism from the point of view of the inhabitants of the Apennine Peninsula. But we are not so scrupulous, but we are very original. And therefore, the recipe for pizza in a frying pan does not offend our aesthetic views and is readily used in practice. And it is not at all necessary to cook pizza in a frying pan and a portable stove only far from civilization. The kitchen is a great springboard for such a culinary test. So let's try to cook pizza in a frying pan, and take the recipe into service (just in case!).
Express - pizza from yeast dough
Ingredients:
- Flour - 2 incomplete glasses (400 g);
- Fresh yeast - 15 g;
- Water - 1 glass;
- Salt - a quarter teaspoonful;
- Vegetable oil - 2 tablespoons.
For the filling:
- Tomato paste - 2 tablespoons;
- Fresh tomatoes - 2 pieces;
- Cheese - 200 g;
- Dried basil and oregano - 1 tablespoon each.
Preparation:Knead a fairly dense dough: tougher than for pies, but softer than for dumplings. To do this, dilute the yeast in warm water and pour it into sifted flour with salt. We achieve the desired consistency of the dough by adding water or flour to it. Leave the dough to rise - half an hour will be enough. In the meantime, prepare the filling. Cut the tomatoes into thin circles, and chop the cheese into shavings. Dilute the tomato paste with two tablespoons of water. Then divide the dough into several parts: depending on the diameter of the frying pan, you will need five or seven (approximately) - just right for portioned pizzas. Then roll out each piece of dough on a table sprinkled with flour into a thin pancake the size of the frying pan, and pour vegetable oil over the frying pan itself and heat it well. Place a layer of dough on a heated frying pan and bake it on one side over very (very!) low heat. After a couple of minutes, turn the dough over, grease it with diluted tomato paste, sprinkle with dry spices, put tomatoes on top and sprinkle with cheese shavings. Another two minutes, and the pizza is ready!
Pizza made from pancake flour
Ingredients:
- Pancake flour - 1 part glass;
- Milk - 2 tablespoons;
- Egg - 1 piece;
- Salt - a quarter teaspoonful;
- Butter - 2 tablespoons;
- Vegetable oil.
Filling:
- Tomatoes;
- Cheese;
- Smoked or boiled sausage;
- Marinated mushrooms or olives.
Preparation:To prepare the dough, mix flour with salt and sift into a bowl. Then add butter (can be replaced with baking margarine) and grind into crumbs. After that, break an egg into a bowl, pour in milk and knead a soft dough. Roll out a pancake from the dough to the diameter of the frying pan, put it on this frying pan (greased with butter) and fry on one side. Fry the base of such dough over high heat for three to four minutes. Then turn the pancake over, put the filling of sliced sausage, mushrooms and tomatoes on it. Sprinkle grated cheese on top. In another five minutes, the pizza will be ready. If the cheese does not want to melt, then cover the frying pan with a lid, and as soon as the cheese "melts", remove the lid.
Pizza from dough on sour cream
Ingredients:
- Flour - 10 tablespoons;
- Mayonnaise - 5 tablespoons;
- Sour cream (or fatty kefir) - 5 tablespoons;
- Egg - 2 pieces.
- Filling:
- Any meat sliced or boiled chicken meat;
- Any hard cheese;
- Tomato sauce or fresh tomatoes.
Preparation:First, mix all the liquid ingredients for the dough, and then gradually add flour to them. The result should be a fairly liquid dough (like for pancakes or a little thicker). Then pour half of the dough into a cold frying pan with a non-stick coating and spread the filling on it: first the meat components, then the tomatoes or tomato sauce, and grated cheese on top. Cover the frying pan with a lid and put it on very low heat. The readiness of the pizza is determined by the state of the cheese: as soon as it melts, the pizza is ready. Cooking pizza this way takes about fifteen minutes. So the recipe is really quick. Try this or that recipe (or each one in turn), choose the best one and cook the pizza, even if you do not have an oven (or just have little time). And perhaps you will be able to improve the proposed recipe or come up with your own.
