Zanzibari Pizza

A very Zanzibari improvisation, this take on pizza is familiar to locals and tourists alike, but it's very different from the Italian original. Instead of a crust with toppings, it’s a roti cooked on a flat, hot griddle, and folded around a spiced ground meat filling enhanced with cabbage, fresh eggs, tomatoes, shallots and sometimes crumbled cheese. A roti or paratha is used here, but frozen green onion pancakes also work. Serve with hot pepper sauce and ketchup for dipping.

Crazy Crust Pizza With Sausage

Homemade pizza from scratch in just one hour? Crazy! The no-yeast, no-knead recipe for Crazy Crust Pizza was first popularized decades ago when it was published by Pillsbury. The easy-enough-for-a-school-night pizza relies on a simple batter of flour, milk and eggs for a light, tender crust that’s reminiscent of a Dutch baby. Toppings like sausage, onion and bell pepper are scattered over the batter and the pizza is baked halfway before it gets blanketed in crushed tomato and mozzarella and baked again. As with any pizza, the particular toppings are customizable, but try to keep the total volume to around three cups for a well proportioned slice.
