PIEROGI PIZZA

Pierogi Pizza image

Two of my favorite things blended together; tastes like pierogis on a pizza. Tasty potatoes are spread on a pizza crust and covered in all the traditional pierogi fixings - bacon, cheese, and green onions. Slice and serve with plain sour cream for dipping.

Ingredients

2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
2 teaspoons white sugar
1 cup warm water
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
¼ cup olive oil
6 potatoes, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
8 ounces sour cream
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 (8 ounce) package marbled Colby-Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
1 bunch green onions, chopped
¼ cup bacon bits, or to taste

Steps:

Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water in a small bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to bubble, about 5 minutes.
Combine flour and salt together in a large bowl. Pour yeast mixture and 1/4 cup olive oil over flour. Mix and knead until a sticky dough forms, about 5 minutes. Place dough in a large, lightly-oiled bowl and turn to coat. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
Place potatoes in a large pot and pour in enough water to cover. Bring to a boil; cook until potatoes are just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain.
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add potatoes and cook until lightly golden, about 5 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Whisk sour cream and garlic powder together in a small bowl to make pizza "sauce".
Gently pat and stretch pizza dough out to a 12-inch circle on a pizza stone. Spread sauce evenly over dough. Layer potatoes on top to cover dough completely. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese, green onions, and bacon bits on top.
Bake pizza in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1 cup water
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1/2-ounce dehydrated porcini mushrooms
1 (8 by 14-inch) piece focaccia
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for preparing pan and garnishing
1 1/2 cups canned whole tomatoes with basil
8 ounces fresh Buffalo mozzarella
1/2 cup shredded aged mozzarella
4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
18 to 20 thick pepperoni slices
1/3 cup shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano

Steps:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup water and white wine vinegar to a simmer. Remove from heat and add mushrooms. Cover and let mushrooms sit, 15 minutes. Strain.
Slice bread horizontally to create 2 pizzas. Lightly oil a baking sheet and place pizzas crust side up. Brush top with 1/4 cup oil. In a bowl, squeeze tomatoes to break up slightly. Place on pizza halves. Pull pieces of Buffalo mozzarella from the ball and place on halves. Top with porcini mushrooms, shredded mozzarella, garlic and pepperoni. Bake until cheese has melted and crust is crispy, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven, drizzle with oil, sprinkle on Parmesan and spread with cut basil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve.
