Pizza Ingredients- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 Tbsp glutinous rice flour
- 2 Tbsp milk
- 2-3 Tbsp spaghetti sauce
- Sriracha sauce (optional, adjust to taste)
- Mozzarella cheese (to taste)
- Black olives (to taste)
- Pickled plums (maesil jangajji), thinly sliced (to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the 2 sweet potatoes that will form the pizza crust. Wash them thoroughly to remove any dirt. Then, steam them or place them in a pot with plenty of water and boil until tender. Cook for about 20-30 minutes, or until a chopstick can easily pierce through them.
Step 2
If you prefer a quicker method, you can use a microwave to cook the sweet potatoes. Wrap each sweet potato in plastic wrap or place them in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave for 7-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through. Adjust the cooking time based on the size of your sweet potatoes.
Step 3
Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, carefully peel them while they are still warm. Use a fork or a masher to mash them until smooth, ensuring there are no lumps. Mashing them while warm will help create a smoother dough.
Step 4
To the mashed sweet potatoes, add 2 tablespoons of glutinous rice flour for a chewy texture and 2 tablespoons of milk for a softer dough. Mix and knead with a spatula or your hands until a cohesive, slightly sticky dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more glutinous rice flour; if it’s too dry, add a bit more milk to reach the desired consistency.
Step 5
Lay a sheet of parchment paper on your pizza pan or baking sheet. Place the sweet potato dough onto the parchment paper and spread it out evenly into your desired pizza shape and thickness. You can use your hands or a rolling pin. Make the edges slightly thicker to form a crust.
Step 6
Spread 2-3 tablespoons of spaghetti sauce evenly over the sweet potato crust. Be careful not to use too much, as it can make the crust soggy.
Step 7
If you enjoy a little heat, drizzle some Sriracha sauce over the spaghetti sauce for an extra kick of flavor. You can adjust the amount of Sriracha to your preference or omit it entirely.
Step 8
Now for the fun part – the toppings! Generously sprinkle your desired amount of mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Then, add your favorite toppings such as black olives, thinly sliced pickled plums, and any other ingredients you like. Sliced mushrooms are also a great addition.
Step 9
Place the topped pizza into a preheated oven. Bake at 220°C (425°F) for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown, and the crust is slightly crisp. Baking time may vary depending on your oven’s specifications.
Step 10
Once baked to perfection, let the sweet potato pizza cool slightly before slicing it into manageable pieces. For an extra touch of flavor, sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese over the top. Enjoy it while it’s warm!
