This is an easy, gluten-free pizza with a difference. Instead of flour, this recipe uses cauliflower to make the light pizza crust, which is topped with a delicious homemade tomato sauce.
1. Pre-heat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
2. Line a baking tray with baking parchment.
3. Blitz the cauliflower in a food processor until powdery. Simmer in a pan of boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain and leave to cool before wrapping in a clean tea towel and squeezing to wring out excess water.
4. Place the cauliflower in a bowl and mix with the cream cheese and egg. Season well.
5. With clean hands, divide the mixture into four portions and shape on the lined baking tray to make a 1-1½ cm thick pizza base. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until firm and golden.
6. To make the sauce, heat the oil in a pan, add the onion and cook until translucent. Add the garlic, chilli and tomatoes and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Add the fresh basil and blitz in your blender to make a smooth sauce.
7. Add a dollop of the tomato sauce and toppings of your choice to the cauliflower pizza base. Bake for about 10 minutes.
