MEGAN’S KITCHEN RECIPES: “Potato Pizza Topping.”
Homemade Pizza makes for an easy Labor Day holiday meal. You can make your own dough or buy from the store. This ‘Potato Topping’ is a delicious variation.
Megan 2 T extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves Red Russian Garlic, thinly sliced
3 medium, waxy potatoes (such as ‘Prairie Blush’), cooked and thinly sliced into rounds
1/2 c heavy cream
1 tsp fresh English Thyme leaves
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
1. Make the dough and let it rise for one hour or as per your directions.
2. Dust a baking sheet with semolina flour or cornmeal. Roll out the dough to 18X20 inch rectangle and fit on baking sheet.
3. Brush the dough with 1 T of the olive oil, then sprinkle it with the garlic slices. Cover it with the potato slices, then drizzle those with the remaining olive oil and the cream. Sprinkle with the fresh thyme leaves, crushing them as you sprinkle. Season liberally with pepper and lightly with salt.
4. Bake until the dough is golden at the edges and the cream is bubbling gently, about 35 minutes.
