Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩‍🍳 method for this recipe


Mise en place

  • If using a pizza stone, preheat the grill to as hot as you can get it. Set the pizza stone lower than you would for toasting or the pizza may burn.
  • If you are going to oven bake the pizza, set the oven to 250° C (475° F - gas 9)

Method

  1. Make 1 pizza per person
  2. Peel and slice the shallots thinly. See here for peeling tips
  3. Add the sliced shallots to a small pan and cover with a little water, cover with a lid and simmer vigorously until the shallots have softened and most of the water is reduced, about 25 minutes. Don't allow it to burn.
  4. Remove the cover and boil off most of the remaining water. Add the sugar and enough balsamic vinegar to just cover the shallots and simmer gently (uncovered) until reduced to a chutney-like consistency.
  5. Roll out the pizza base(s) and dust with fine yellow cornmeal.
  6. Prick the pizza all over with a fork. This prevents it puffing up too much and burning while it is cooking.
  7. If using a pizza stone I find the best results are to pre-cook the base on one side only for 2 minutes (or until puffed up). remove from the oven, flip over and add the toppings.
  8. If oven baking add the toppings to the uncooked pizza base.
  9. Coat the pizza base with the onion chutney and top with the cheese.
  10. Bake or grill in the oven until the cheese is melted - I find about 3 to 4 minutes if grilling on a hot pizza stone and 12 to 14 minutes if baking. Check regularly, they are easy to burn!
  11. Keep the fist pizza warm at the bottom of the oven whilst you make the second.

Variations

Being one who cannot resist meddling with a recipe, I peeled and crushed a few fat cloves of garlic and added them to the shallots at the simmering stage.
