Naan Bread Pizza
By: -Sylvie-
Oct 16, 2007
I just bought Nigella Lawson's latest cookbook, 'Nigella Express' which has a recipe for Naan Pizza. The only ingredient I had in was the naan, but I liked the idea and adapted the recipe to fit the ingredients I had in my fridge and larder. The recipe is very versatile and you could play with all kinds of toppings, for example using pizza sauce instead of the pesto, using a different cheese or adding mushrooms. This makes a great snack or even a quick and easy dinner if served with a side salad, it would even make a nice appetizer to share. Oviously you can double, trebble or quadrouple the recipe to meet your needs.

- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

Naan makes the perfect pizza crust IMO. It's great to have on hand in the freezer and simply throw on whatever you have. I did not make the recipe exact, I used olive oil, grilled zucchini and mushrooms, mozzarella, provolone and a few crumbles of gorgonzola on top. In summer it's too hot to use my oven and one naan fits right into my toaster oven. Gourmet pizza taste at a fraction of the price, while I clear things out of my fridge!

I always knew Nigella was a smart woman - I've been making pizza from naan bread for years! LOL I love to play around with toppings for these; recently I had some Saag Paneer leftover from dinner out so spread it on a piece of Naan, and topped with shredded Monterey jack cheese then baked. It was delish! Your ingredient choices sound excellent and I am definitely going to try them soon! Thanks!

This was yummy, but I must admit that I left out the olives (personal preference). Instead of using pesto, I used a tbsp of pasta sauce as well as shredded fresh basil over. I don't know why, but I was still hungry after eating! Thanks anyway
