Spinach, ham and parmesan pizza

Here’s an idea to get children eating vegetables. Make a pizza, they love it, and hide vegetables in it… No, it’s not naughty ^^.

For this recipe, you can use a little less spinach to start (500 g, say) and add a little cream.

They’ll thank you in a few years ^^.

  2. Step 2

    Wash the spinach and “wilt” it over high heat for a few minutes in a large covered pan (that means putting the lightly drained spinach in a pan, setting it over high heat for a few minutes, and when the spinach has softened, turning off the heat and draining it). If you use a kilo of spinach, you’ll have three panfuls to wilt.

    Put them in a colander, salt them and, once lukewarm, press them in your hands to remove all the water they hold. Otherwise it may make your dough soggy.

  3. Step 3

    Roll the dough out on a floured surface, making sure there’s always a little flour on top so the rolling pin doesn’t catch and tear the dough.

    Put the coulis, the spinach, the ham and the parmesan on the dough.

    Preheat the oven to 190 °C.

    Cut the dough into two equal parts. Roll the dough up on itself, cut small sections and stand them up in a buttered ovenproof dish.

    Bake for 20 minutes.
