Pulled pork pizza recipe

Treat yourself to this alternative pulled pork pizza recipe for dinner tonight. We say alternative, as it’s made with a sourdough crispbread base rather than classic pizza dough – so it could be the pizza for you if you have a deep love for the Italian pie, but don’t always fare well with traditional bread. The pulled pork is molto dreamy, while the avocado, chilli and pickled red onion brings some vitamins, healthy fats and antioxidants into the mix. Buon appetito!

Ingredients (makes 1 pizza)

One large round of Leksands sourdough crispbread

100ml tomato sauce

75g pulled pork

Butter or oil for frying

1 tomato

60g mozzarella

2 handfuls grated cheese (e.g. a mix of Grana Padano and Cheddar)

½ red onion

1 avocado

Fresh chili

Fresh coriander

Salt and freshly ground pepper

Method

Preheat the oven to 225°C.

Start by prepping the pickled onion. Slice the red onion as thinly as possible and put in a bowl. Squeeze the lime into the bowl and massage into the onion. Leave to one side while making the pizza.

Thinly slice the onion and fry in a little oil or butter, with a pinch of sugar added, until soft and translucent. Spread the tomato sauce onto the crispbread and spread the onion on top.

Slice up your tomato and add along with the pulled pork. Salt and pepper, then top with chunks of mozzarella and the grated cheese.

Bake in the middle of the oven for approximately 10 minutes; while it bakes, prepare your avocado. Scoop out the flesh and mash with finely chopped chili, salt and lime juice to taste.

Remove the pizza from oven, and add dollops of your avocado smash and a generous sprinkling of fresh coriander to serve.
