Ingredients:

For the pizza dough:

  • 2×7 sachets instant yeast
  • 11/2 cups lukewarm water
  • 1 kg cake flour
  • Pinch sea salt
  • 2 T olive oil
  • For the topping:
  • 8 radishes, rinsed and sliced
  • 200 G spinach or Swiss chard (stems only), rinsed and sliced
  • 200 g ripe gooseberries
  • 2 t red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 2 T olive oil
  • Sea salt
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint chopped
  • Freshly ground black pepper
Method
  • Add the yeast to the lukewarm water and whisk. Allow to stand for a few minutes.
  • Place the flour in a mixing bowl and make a well. Add the water and yeast, a little at a time and, using your fingertips, incorporate to form a soft dough.
  • Knead briefly until the dough becomes smooth. Place in an oiled bowl, cover with a clean tea towel and leave in a warm place to rise for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • Once the dough has risen, divide into 4 balls and roll each out on a floured surface. Brush with olive oil, scatter with sea salt and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
  • To make the topping, place the radish, spinach or chard and gooseberries into a large bowl and squash the gooseberries to release the juices. Add the remaining ingredients and mix. Sprinkle with sea salt.
  • Divide the topping between the cooked pizza bases and serve.

Cook’s note: Alternatively, top the pizza bases with warm falafel balls, baby marrow shavings marinated in lemon juice and olive oil, sundried tomatoes, chilli and garlic.
