Portobello Mushroom Leek Pizza

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 5 people
Bring back the pizza nights with this zero dough veggie-packed portobello mushroom pizza. Unconventional and absolutely delicious. Cooked in 30 minutes, and gone in seconds!

Ingredients
 

  • 5 portobello mushrooms
  • 1.5 tsp sea salt
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, large
  • 2 leeks, small, washed and sliced in medium pieces.
  • 1/2 cup cheese, cheddar
  • 1 tsp chili flakes

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. You can also use your outdoor drill for this step.
  • Prepare the mushrooms by removing the stem and scraping the black gills off with a teaspoon
  • Using a damp tea towel, wipe the mushroom to remove any dirt
  • Place the mushrooms on a lined baking sheet. Using a brush, dip into 1 tbsp of olive oil and brush the oil over the mushrooms. Sprinkle 1 tsp salt on all the mushrooms. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, face up and then 5 minutes face down.
  • Meanwhile, prep and cook the leeks. In a medium pan, on high heat, add 3 tbsp olive oil. Add the garlic and fry until it releases its golden. Add the leeks and stir well to coat. Make sure you pat-dry the leeks before adding them to the pan. Otherwise, they will be soggy
  • Continue to stir-fry the leeks on high heat, stirring continuously to ensure they don’t burn. Add 1/2 tsp salt. Once cooked, set aside
  • Once the mushrooms are cooked, remove from the oven/grill and spread the cooked leeks on the mushrooms. Add cheese and sprinkle the chilli flakes over the mushrooms. Send under the grill to melt the cheese for a few minutes
  • Serve hot with salad

Notes

  • Don't wash the mushrooms simple remove any dirt with a damp cloth or paper towel
  • Make sure to dry the leeks before adding to the pan or they will be soggy
  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge and reheated
  • I love to use cheddar but any good melting cheese will do
  • Feel free to add any other additional topping you like
