Marmite Pizza

I have been thinking about trying this recipe for a few weeks. I made the first one this afternoon and I have to say it’s delicious! (well, if you like Marmite, that is).

Base Ingredients* (*measurements for a bread maker)

• 1  Cup tepid water
• 1 tbsp melted butter
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 3/4 cups strong white bread flour
• 3 tsp of Marmite
• 1 tsp Fast action yeast

Important : As with all bread-makers, you need to put the ingredients in the order below.

1. Dissolve the 3 tsp of Marmite in the tepid water
2. Add the melted butter
3. Add the sugar
4. Add the salt
5. Add the flour
6. Add the fast action yeast
7. Use basic setting 8 for dough.

Topping

• 150g grated Mozzarella cheese
• 150g grated mature Cheddar cheese
• 3 tsp Marmite
• 250g creamed tomato sauce
• 2 tbsp tomato ketchup
• 1 red pepper
• 1 green pepper
• Sliced Spanish chorizo
• Jalapeños

While the dough is making, you can prepare the sauce for the base. For the sauce add the cream tomatoes into a bowl. Then add 2 tbsp of tomato ketchup and yes, you have guessed,  3 tsp of Marmite (for a little kick, you can also add 4 drops of Tabasco sauce). Mix these all together until the Marmite has dissolved and then chop and prepare a red and a green pepper. After this I went to the shop because I did not have any cheese, but you will probably be more organised .

When the dough is ready, grease a baking tray and spread the dough out to cover the base (it can be quite sticky but be patient and you will get there). Then brush lightly oil and leave for 15 mins. Spread your tomato sauce mix over the base and cover with a mixture of both cheeses. Place the chorizo, peppers and jalapeños over the cheese and cook until the base has hardened and the topping is golden brown.

Then sit back and enjoy.

Tasties!
