How to make a pizza in 5 minutes flat?

How to make a quick pizza?

Whether you are new to cooking, in a hurry or poorly equipped, there are a thousand reasons to choose express pizza. So to save time on the original recipe, we remove, or more precisely, we replace the most time-consuming element, the dough. Unlike a quiche, a pizza without dough doesn’t exist…

What to replace pizza dough with?

In some healthy or gluten-free pizza recipes, the dough is made with vegetables. In summer, you can make a pizza with zucchini dough, or prefer cauliflower in the winter season. But remember, above all we are looking for a recipe that is easy and quick to prepare. Therefore, we will rather focus on pizzas made with naan or tortillas.

Naan pizza

If you are a fan of pizzas with thick and soft dough, then naan pizza should satisfy you.
To get the famous Indian breads, go to the world cuisine section of your favorite store and in specialized grocery stores. Otherwise, you can always make it at home.
Then, all that remains is to garnish the naans with the ingredients of your choice. Bake everything for 8 minutes at 210°C, until the naan pizza takes on color, and it’s ready!

Our tip: use cheese naans for even more deliciousness.

Tortilla pizza

Notice to lovers of thin and crunchy pizzas, tortilla pizza, or tortizza is made for you.
Usually, Mexican pancakes are used to make tacos or enchiladas, but topped with sauce and garnished with tomato coulis, cream, meat or vegetables, they make an excellent pizza base. However, be careful with the amount of sauce you put in it. As the tortillas are thin, too much sauce risks making them soggy, even though it is the crispy effect that is desired. As for cooking, allow, as for the naan pizza, around 8 minutes at 210°C.

Our tip: for a gluten-free pizza, choose corn flour tortillas.

Pizza without oven and express

Good news, in addition to requiring almost no preparation, naan pizza and tortizza can both be cooked in a pan. Practical when you don’t have an oven, or it’s too hot to turn it on.
To do this, prepare your filling in advance, especially foods that require prior cooking such as meat or vegetables. Then place your base, the naan or tortilla, directly in the pan. Arrange the filling, then heat over medium heat until the cheese melts. If necessary, cover the pizza throughout the cooking process to speed up the process.
Please note, we do not recommend cooking in the microwave as this risks softening your express pizza. The pan has the advantage of retaining all the crispiness of the recipe.
