Chewy Dough Ingredients- 150g all-purpose flour
- 80ml milk or soy milk
- 1 tsp sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 1 Tbsp butter or cooking oil
- 150g all-purpose flour
- 80ml milk or soy milk
- 1 tsp sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 1 Tbsp butter or cooking oil
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s make the chewy dough. In a bowl, add 150g of all-purpose flour. Pour in 80ml of milk or soy milk. Next, add 1 teaspoon of sugar, a pinch of salt, and 1 tablespoon of melted butter or cooking oil, and mix them together.
Step 2
Using a spatula or your hands, mix until no dry flour remains and the mixture is smooth. If the dough is too stiff, add a little more milk; if it’s too sticky, add a bit more flour until you achieve the desired consistency.
Step 3
Transfer the dough to a clean work surface and knead it for about 30-40 times until it becomes smooth and elastic. Proper kneading is key to achieving a delightfully chewy texture.
Step 4
Now, let’s prepare the potato filling. Take one large potato, wash it thoroughly, and place it in a microwave-safe dish. Add 5 tablespoons of water. Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and microwave for 2-3 minutes until the potato is cooked through.
Step 5
Carefully peel the hot, cooked potato. Use a fork or a potato masher to mash it completely until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise to the mashed potato for extra creaminess.
Step 6
To the mashed potato mixture, add 1 teaspoon of sugar for sweetness, a pinch of salt for flavor enhancement, and a pinch of black pepper for aroma. Mix everything well to create the delicious potato filling.
Step 7
On your work surface, flatten the prepared dough into a circle approximately 20cm in diameter. Aim for a thin and wide shape, similar to a pizza base, as this will help it cook faster and improve the texture.
Step 8
In the center of the flattened dough, generously spread your desired amount of pizza cheese. The melted cheese will add wonderful flavor.
Step 9
Spread the prepared mashed potato filling evenly over the pizza cheese. Ensure the cheese is well covered by the potatoes.
Step 10
Drizzle the Sriracha mayo sauce over the potato filling. (To make Sriracha mayo sauce, mix 2 Tbsp mayonnaise with 1 Tbsp Sriracha sauce.) Now, carefully bring the edges of the dough towards the center, like folding a dumpling, to enclose the filling securely. Pinch the seams firmly to prevent any leaks during cooking.
Step 11
Heat a large pan over low heat and add a little cooking oil to coat the bottom. It’s crucial to maintain low heat to prevent burning. Be mindful of the temperature.
Step 12
Carefully place the potato pizza, seam-side down (if possible, or adjust for stability), onto the heated pan. Lightly brush the top surface of the pizza with a little oil for extra crispiness.
Step 13
Cover the pan with a lid and cook for about 5 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Then, carefully flip the pizza and cook the other side for another 5 minutes. You can test for doneness by inserting a skewer; if it comes out clean, the inside is fully cooked. Continue cooking until thoroughly done.
Step 14
Once both sides are golden brown and crispy, and the inside is completely cooked, your delicious potato pizza is ready! Enjoy the wonderful contrast between the crispy exterior and the moist, flavorful filling.
Step 15
Slice the finished potato pizza into your desired portions and arrange them on a plate. Finish by sprinkling a little parsley flakes on top for a visually appealing and even more delicious presentation.
