What's for dinner

Going to be making pizza for dinner tonight.

Love a home made pizza, but I tend to over do it on the toppings and thus works out so expensive. Much like when I do Mac n Cheese or Nachos.

I try to stick to the Italian principles of keeping it simple but with distinctive flavours.

That is why we avoid it :stuck_out_tongue:
We just use shoulder ham and salami and sometimes bacon.
We roll out about 750g of premade dough - VERY THIN


Tomato paste and tomato sauce mix (depends on the paste if it is very thick we thin it out with tomato sauce) This is also when we add some black pepper and mixed herbs and sweet basil.

Then we do 2 flavours:

Then a layer of mozzarella and then the toppings - ham, bacon, salami, anchovies and mushrooms. Topped with a thin layer of cheddar.

this one is 75& the same as above but it is pineapple not anchovies except for the area that is pineapple and anchovies as marked with toothpicks

I forgot to take picture of the cooked food.

We bake it in the oven at 190 for 8mins (both fit into our oven at the same time, so after 8mins we rotate them so that they bake evenly.) And bake again for 10mins or till the base is crispy when you lift it.

Heard about Poutine, which maybe @murfle may be familiar with, but then I realised I’ve never seen or heard of cheese curds. So I gave up on that recipe.

Many places in Canada substitute the cheese curds with mozza, but it isn’t the same. Still good, just not the same.

I tried making my own cheese curds while in South Africa. It just made my kitchen smell bad.

If anyone can get proper cheese curds in this country, I will do my best to make some trades.

My lady made me sweet and sour Kassler strips and some fancy type of rice (possibly basmati but actually flavourful), with a spinach and cheese sauce.

Sadly it didn’t LOOK so great on my plate (we dont dish up “neat” and photogenic) so I ended up not taking a photo but holy shitballs did it taste amazing.

I’m super lucky :smiley:
