Ingredients
1 tightly packed cup of grated cauliflower1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese1/3 cup of chopped fresh parsley1 clove garlic, finely chopped1 medium eggBlack pepper to tasteYou'll also need a sheet of baking (grease-proof) paper, oven tray and a clean and dry dish cloth.
Leave the oven tray in the oven to heat up.
If your cauliflower isn't grated yet, that's the next step. Grate it so that it looks like rice. Measure it by tightly packing it into a cup.
Place the grated cauliflower into a microwave-proof bowl, cover with a plate and microwave for 5 minutes. Then pour the cooked cauliflower onto the clean dish cloth and let it cool for a few minutes.
While it's cooling, shred and combine the other ingredients together in a bowl. Set aside.
When the cauliflower is cool enough to handle, lift the sides of the dish cloth (with the cauliflower inside), and use it to wring out any excess moisture from the cauliflower. Really wring out the moisture as much as you can.
Then spoon the cauliflower to your other ingredients and mix by hand until everything is combined.
Spoon the mixture onto a sheet of baking paper and flatten it out into a pancake/pizza shape. Tidy up the sides as much as possible. Take the hot oven tray out and transfer the pizza base (still on the baking paper) onto the tray.
Cook for around 20-30 minutes or until the crust is looking lovely and brown. The browning helps to 'crispify' the crust so that it isn't too crumbly.
Once the crust is browned and beginning to crisp, take it out of the oven. You can top it with your favourite toppings and then return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes. Keep it on the baking paper and tray until the recipe is ready for serving.
By the way... the secret to making the crust keep its shape is the cheesy crust. The egg binds the ingredients, but while the crust is cooking, it's the cheese turning brown and crispy that turns grated ingredients into a pizza base!
