All of the delicious flavour, none of the guilt and more importantly, none of the gluten-laden dough.<\/p>\n<h3>What You\u2019ll Need<\/h3>\n<p><em>For the base:<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2 cups(about half a large head) of cauliflower, grated<\/li>\n<li>\u00bd cup of grated mozzarella (low-fat if possible)<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons of parmesan or padano cheese, grated<\/li>\n<li>1 large egg<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon of garlic, minced<\/li>\n<li>Pinch of salt and ground black pepper<\/li>\n<li>\u00bc cup of fresh parsley, chopped<\/li>\n<li>Optional: 50g of ground almonds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>For the sauce:<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3\/4 cup of passata<\/li>\n<li>\u00bc cup of red wine<\/li>\n<li>2 cloves of garlic, minced<\/li>\n<li>Handful of fresh basil, chopped<\/li>\n<li>Squirt of honey<\/li>\n<li>Pinch of salt and pepper to taste<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>How It\u2019s Done<\/h3>\n<p>1. Preheat your oven to 230\u2103 or gas mark 8. Line your baking tray with parchment paper or a silicon non-stick mat.<\/p>\n<p>2. Make the sauce first so it can simmer and develop while you prepare the rest of the pizza. In a heated pan, gently fry the garlic until lightly golden in some olive oil. Add in the passata and red wine and bring to the boil.<\/p>\n<p>3. Bring the mixture down to a low heat. Add in the basil and a squirt of honey if it tastes quite sharp. Leave to simmer on a very low heat while you prepare the rest of the pizza.<\/p>\n<p>4. Because the cauliflower is grated so finely, the easiest and quickest way to cook it is to microwave it. Place in a bowl and cover it with cling film. Microwave on a high heat for about 7 or 8 minutes or until it is nice and soft.<\/p>\n<p>5. Remove your cauliflower from the microwave and allow it to cool.<\/p>\n<p>6. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg and add in the grated mozzarella, parmesan or padano, parsley, garlic, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly and combine this mixture with the cooled cauliflower.<\/p>\n<p>7. Now is when you would also add in the ground almonds. Please note the mixture will be thicker and possibly drier as a result, but it will also have a touch of sweetness.<\/p>\n<p>8. Empty the mixture onto parchment paper and shape into a circle. Place in the oven to bake for 10-15 minutes or until it is lightly browned.<\/p>\n<p>9. Take your base out of the oven, top it with your tomato sauce and whatever other toppings tickle your fancy and cook for a further 10 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Keep any leftover tomato sauce and a make a delicious gluten-free pasta dish for dinner tomorrow. Bon apetit!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image: Popsugar.com This pizza recipe is a game-changer for coeliac and gluten-intolerant people.
