Preparing broccoli pizza in the Thermomix

Step 1: Prepare broccoli

First, wash and cut the broccoli into small florets. Place the florets in the Thermomix and chop them at speed 5 for about 10 seconds until they have a rice-like consistency.

Step 2: Cook broccoli

The chopped broccoli now needs to be cooked. Put it in the microwave for about 5 minutes or steam it in the Thermomix at 100°C for 5 minutes.

Step 3: Remove excess water

This is an important step! Take a clean kitchen towel and wrap the cooked broccoli in it. Squeeze out as much water as possible. This prevents the dough from becoming too moist.

Step 4: Mix the dough

Return the dry broccoli to the Thermomix and add the mozzarella, egg, salt, pepper, and your chosen spices. Mix everything at speed 4 for 20 seconds until well combined.

Step 5: Baking the pizza base

Preheat your oven to 200°C. Spread the dough mixture on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and shape it into a flat pizza base. Bake the base for about 15-20 minutes until it is golden brown and firm.

Step 6: Topping and finishing the pizza

Now you can top your pizza as you like! Spread the tomato sauce, grated cheese, and vegetables on the pre-baked base. Bake the pizza for another 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden.
