Unique Homemade Pizza: A Delicious Collaboration of Arugula and Chutney
Special Homemade Pizza with ‘Chutney’
For lunch today, I decided to create a unique pizza by combining the freshness of arugula with the delightful flavor of chutney. The thin crust of the ‘our-wheat’ tortilla bakes up wonderfully crisp and savory. The plump shrimp offer a delicate taste, while the aromatic arugula and the exotic chutney elevate the overall flavor profile. This pizza was rated ★★★★ by my family – they declared it the most unique and delicious pizza we’ve ever baked, prompting us to make three more! It’s truly amazing how well chutney complements pizza; its charm blends perfectly. This recipe is a must-try for a special and flavorful meal.
Pizza Ingredients- 6-7 leaves of fresh arugula
- 110g mozzarella cheese
- 5-6 cooked and peeled shrimp (cocktail shrimp or similar)
- 3 Tbsp eggplant tomato chutney
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare your fresh arugula and the sweet and tangy eggplant tomato chutney. Chutney is typically a cooked condiment made from fruits and vegetables, enjoyed in regions like Indonesia and Europe. I thought it would be interesting to try using chutney on pizza for a unique twist.
Step 2
Place one ‘our-wheat’ tortilla on your pizza pan. This thin tortilla will provide a delightfully crisp base. Next, arrange the fresh arugula evenly over the tortilla. Then, generously spoon the chutney over the arugula. Finally, sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly on top, covering the ingredients.
Step 3
Artfully arrange the prepared shrimp pieces across the pizza. The succulent shrimp will add a wonderful texture and subtle sweetness to each bite.
Step 4
Bake the pizza in a preheated oven at 200°C (approximately 400°F) for about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on it; you’re looking for the cheese to be melted and bubbly, and the tortilla edges to be golden brown and crisp.
Step 5
Carefully remove the pizza from the oven. Enjoy immediately! You’ll savor the harmonious blend of fresh arugula, the sweet and tangy chutney, the delicate shrimp, and the rich, melted mozzarella cheese. It’s a truly unique and delicious pizza experience.
