It’s Pizza Time! Do you like Pizza as much as I do? Probably. I read the other day that Pizza is the most photographed and instagrammed food. Means there are a lot of pizza lovers out there ;) Maybe this “Köttbullar” inspired pizza is the right one for you? Take a look…
I’m really a huge fan of pizza. I could eat it all day and night. There are so many different styles you can do, so many toppings you can add… endless possibilities. That’s what I like the most. I like the ones with a thin crust as much as I like a deep dish pizza with cheese in the edge, big or small, all will end up on my plate and later in my tummy ;)
This “Köttbullar” is a Swedish inspired pizza which is basically a regular pizza with meatballs and brown mushrooms ;) No matter – the result is delicious. It’s a bit more work than a regular pizza cause you have to fry the meatballs and mushrooms in advance, but it’s worth it!
The upcoming weeks I will have some more pizza recipes for you – my favorite pizza dough, the best ever pizza sauce and maybe some other pizza inspired recipes… let’s see ;)
INGREDIENTS / ZUTATEN
For the dough:
1 1/4 cups (300ml) lukewarm water
1 tsp. honey
0.7 oz. (20g) fresh yeast
18 oz. (500g) wheat flour or pizza flour
1 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. olive oil
For the topping:
11 oz. (300g) ground beef
1/2 onion, diced finely
salt, pepper
pinch of allspice
7 oz. (200g) brown mushrooms
2-3 tbsp. olive oil
8-10 tbsp. tomato sauce
8.8 oz. (250g) mozzarella, grated
Für den Teig:
300ml lauwarmes Wasser
1 TL Honig
1/2 Würfel (20g) frische Hefe
500g Weizenmehl (Tipo 00 oder Type 550)
1 TL Salz
2 EL Olivenöl
Für den Belag:
300g Hackfleisch, gemischt
1/2 Zwiebel, fein gehackt
Salz, Pfeffer
Prise Piment (Nelkenpfeffer)
200g braune Champignons
2-3 EL Olivenöl
8-10 EL Tomatenoße
250g Mozzarella, gerieben
DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG
2. Add salt and oil to the bowl and mix everything with your hands, then transfer to a floured surface and knead for about 5-6 minutes until you get a nice smooth dough. If the dough is too sticky, add some flour. If the dough is too dry, add some more water. The dough should be soft but not sticking to your hands. Form a ball and place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place for about 30-45 minutes or until almost doubled in size.
3. While the dough is rising, preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C) including a baking sheet or pizza stone (for at least 30 minutes).
4. Mix the ground beef with the finely diced onion, season with salt, pepper, and allspice, then form small balls. Clean the mushrooms and cut into slices. Heat up the oil in a pan and fry the meatballs until browned on all sides, remove and fry the mushrooms until soft and also browned. Take off the heat and set aside.
5. Remove the dough from the bowl and knead another 6-8 minutes on a floured surface. Cut into 4 pieces (cover two of them for later use) and roll out two dough pieces. Place on a floured baking parchment and spread half of the tomato sauce on top (leave the edge free of sauce), sprinkle with half of the grated mozzarella, place half of the meatballs and mushrooms on top and then place everything on the hot baking sheet or pizza stone and let bake for about 18-20 minutes. The mozzarella should have a nice color and look bubbly. While the two first pizzas are baking, prepare the two others. Serve hot.
Note: If you like to make one big pizza, just roll out all of the dough at once and use the toppings as described to get one large delicious pizza for many people.
2. Das Salz und das Öl zur Schüssel dazugeben und alles mit den Händen vermischen, dann auf einer bemehlten Fläche für 5-6 Minuten zu einem glatten Teig verkneten. Der Teig sollte weich, aber nicht klebrig sein – ggf. bei einem zu klebrigen Teig noch etwas Mehl dazugeben, ist der Teig zu trocken etwas Wasser nachschütten, bis die Konsistenz passt. Eine Kugel formen und in eine leicht geölte Schüssel legen, mit einem Küchentuch abdecken und an einem warmen Ort etwa 30-45 Minuten gehen lassen. Das Volumen sollte sich etwa verdoppelt haben.
3. Während der Teig geht, den Ofen auf 200°C (390°F) für mindestens 30 Minuten mit samt einem Blech oder Pizzastein vorheizen.
4. Das Hackfleisch mit den sehr fein gehackten Zwiebeln vermischen, mit Salz, Pfeffer und einer Prise Piment (Nelkenpfeffer) würzen und dann in viele kleine Kugeln formen. Die Champignons säubern und dann in Scheiben schneiden. Das Olivenöl in einer Pfanne erhitzen und die Hackfleischkugeln darin rundum scharf anbraten. Sobald das Hackfleisch gebräunt ist, aus der Pfanne nehmen und zur Seite stellen, die Pilze in der selben Pfanne anbraten, bis sie weich und gebräunt sind. Zu den Hackfleischkugeln zur Seite stellen.
5. Den gegangenen Teig noch einmal 6-8 Minuten auf einer bemehlten Fläche kräftig durchkneten und dann in 4 Portionen aufteilen. Zwei der Teigportionen dünn ausrollen bzw. auseinanderziehen und auf ein bemehltes Backpapier legen. Die beiden anderen Teigportionen abdecken und zur Seite legen. Die Hälfte der Tomatensoße auf den beiden Teigfladen verteilen (dabei einen daumenbreiten Rand frei lassen), die Hälfte des Mozzarella darauf streuen und dann die Hälfte der Hackbällchen und Pilze darauf verteilen. Das Backpapier mit den Pizzen auf das heiße Blech bzw. den Pizzastein ziehen und dann für etwa 18-20 Minuten backen, bis der Mozzarella geschmolzen ist und leicht gebräunt. Während die Pizzen backen, können die beiden anderen schon vorbereitet werden. Heiß servieren.
Hinweis: Wer ein ganzes Blech auf einmal machen möchte, rollt den Teig einfach auf auf die entsprechende Größe aus und folgt dem Rezept wie beschrieben.

Instructions

- Add salt and oil to the bowl and mix everything with your hands, then transfer to a floured surface and knead for about 5-6 minutes until you get a nice smooth dough. If the dough is too sticky, add some flour. If the dough is too dry, add some more water. The dough should be soft but not sticking to your hands. Form a ball and place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place for about 30-45 minutes or until almost doubled in size.
- While the dough is rising, preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C) including a baking sheet or pizza stone (for at least 30 minutes).
- Mix the ground beef with the finely diced onion, season with salt, pepper, and allspice, then form small balls. Clean the mushrooms and cut into slices. Heat up the oil in a pan and fry the meatballs until browned on all sides, remove and fry the mushrooms until soft and also browned. Take off the heat and set aside.
- Remove the dough from the bowl and knead another 6-8 minutes on a floured surface. Cut into 4 pieces (cover two of them for later use) and roll out two dough pieces. Place on a floured baking parchment and spread half of the tomato sauce on top (leave the edge free of sauce), sprinkle with half of the grated mozzarella, place half of the meatballs and mushrooms on top and then place everything on the hot baking sheet or pizza stone and let bake for about 18-20 minutes. The mozzarella should have a nice color and look bubbly. While the two first pizzas are baking, prepare the two others. Serve hot.
