This pizza is for my carb-on-carb lovers. Plus the roasted garlic makes a delicious base for the savoury potatoes and crisp arugula. A winning pizza all the way.

Ingredients

Pizza

  • 2
    medium ready-made pizza crusts
  • 2 tsp (10 mL)
    olive oil
  • 2
    small potatoes
  • 1¼ tsp (1 g)
    dried thyme
  • 1 pinch
    salt
  • 1 cup (20 g)
    arugula
  • 5
    sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained, chopped
  • 10
    kalamata olives, pits removed, chopped
  • 3 Tbsp (25 g)
    roasted pine nuts

Tahini sriracha sauce

Try homemade

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C)*. Place the pizza crust on a baking tray and lightly coat with oil.
  2. Place the roasted garlic onto the crust and mash it using the back of a fork, distributing it evenly over the crust.
  3. To ensure the potatoes cook as quickly as the crust, slice them very thinly and evenly. Then layer them over the garlicky crust.
  4. Sprinkle the thyme and salt over the pizza.
  5. Bake on the centre rack of the oven for 13 - 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the potatoes are cooked through.
  6. Meanwhile, combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
  7. Top the baked pizza with arugula, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and pine nuts. Drizzle over the sauce, and enjoy!

Notes

  • We used top and bottom heating (not fan-assisted/convection).

Storage

  • Best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 1 day.

This recipe was lovely. I didn't think the ingredients would be good on a pizza due to what we are all told should go on a pizza, but WOW!!

Woop woop! So happy to hear that the garlic and potato pizza was enjoyed, Clare 🤗

This was so good! Instead of the tahini sauce I made chipotle mayo. Will definitely make this pizza again.

Really nice, especially the dressing was fantastic! I think I would try to add a little more potato next time, I could not really taste it :) I accidentally bought Tarte (Flammkuchen) dough instead of pizza dough, also worked out nice!!


Fam van Eijkeren - March 1, 2024, 7:47 p.m.

We made the pizza with all the recommanded toppings and it was delicious!!!


Athina - Sept. 29, 2023, 3:13 p.m.

Delicious! Used the homemade dough recipe as well and it was sooo good (despite a few mistakes I made). Seems like this will become a staple :)

This is delicious. Use a flat bread or pitta bread to make individual portions .

My family loved it! Perfect for summer nights on the terrace :)

Jamie - March 20, 2023, 1:11 a.m.

Wow! Delicious. Will definitely make this again.

So good, make this even when you don't have all the ingredients! My favorite homemade pizza ever.

A huge compliment, Anne, thank you!

Delicious! Tried this for the first time tonight because I love arugula as a pizza topping, and this has easily become a new favorite! All the ingredients work together beautifully.

We appreciate this so much, Dacia, and are so happy to hear the lovely review 😃

This pizza makes for a lovely lunch or dinner! From the potatoes to the arugula to pine nuts, the variety of textures really enhance the dish. I’ve made it a couple times now and it never disappoints. Thank you!
