Potato pizza

It’s the little things that make life big, right? Maybe a potato pizza might be one of these. I was surprised, when I saw that dish in a menu. I couldn’t believe, that potato and pizza dough will end up in a delicious aperitif. Wrong thought! Both ingredients do harmonize very well. It’s a great aperitif and it became a favorite recipe of the Chef’s Handyman team and my family loves the snack as well.

For the dough, combine, 2 lbs. flour, 0.5 l or 2 cups of lukewarm water, 38 ml or 2 tbsp. of liquid yeast, 1 tbsp. of sea salt, 1 tsp. of sugar and 3-4 tbsp. of olive oil. Knead well. Place the dough into a bowl. Cover the bowl with a humid tea towel. Allow to the dough to double in size at least for 1 hour.

Meanwhile steam the potatoes or cook them in salt water until soft. When cooked through take them out.
