Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Pizza

March 29

Huevos Rancheros is one of my favourite breakfasts and although traditionally served with corn chips, baked on a pizza base adds a similar crunch from the crust and makes an interesting twist. I whack my oven up to highest temperature it will go and bake my pizza bases on a pizza stone which you can get from most kitchen shops.  Otherwise uses a metal baking sheet.

  • time 20 mins + proofing time

Method

  1. 1. In a large mixing bowl combine the yeast and flour and make a well in the centre. Mix the water with the sugar, salt and oil and whisk until combined. Pour this mixture into the centre of mixing bowl and using a wooden spoon or your hands mix together to form a rough dough.
  2. 2. Turn the dough out on a floured work surface and knead for 10 minutes or until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. Place back in the bowl and cover with cling film. Leave in a warm place to rise for 50 minutes or until it has doubled in size.
  3. 3. Place a pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 250˚C/425°F/Gas Mark 7. Punch down the risen down and divide into 4 small balls or 2 large ones depending how big you want your bases to be. Sprinkle the work surface with a little semolina and roll out each ball as thin as possible.
  4. 4. Bake each base for 4-5 minutes on the pizza stone and then transfer to a wire rack. Mix the passatta with the beans and spread each base with the mixture. Sprinkle over a little feta cheese and bake in the oven for a further 6-8 minutes. While the pizza is baking fry the eggs on a hot frying pan.
  5. 5. Serve the pizza's with the fried egg on top, a little sprinkle of feta, red onion, avocado and coriander and a good squeeze of lime juice. Season with sea salt and ground black pepper and serve straight away.
