Open pie with vegetable carpaccio topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 450 g of store-bought pizza dough, at room temperature
- 1 small cucumber
- 1 small watermelon radish or 3 large radishes
- 3 teaspoons olive oil
- 230 g of cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 small clove of garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley, chives, or a combination, chopped
- 1/4 cup plain nonfat yogurt
- 1 teaspoon poppy seeds
- Additional equipment: grater-shredder
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C).
Roll out the pizza dough on a sheet of parchment paper into a 25cm x 38cm rectangle. Transfer the dough and parchment to an inverted baking sheet and bake until crispy and golden brown (10-12 minutes).
- Meanwhile, using a mandoline, slice the cucumber and radish very thinly. Toss them in a small bowl with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese with the garlic, herbs, and yogurt.
- Transfer the crust to a serving platter or cutting board. Spread the cheese mixture on top, leaving a 0.6 cm border. Arrange the vegetables in a single layer, overlapping slightly. Drizzle with the remaining 2 teaspoons of olive oil and sprinkle with poppy seeds.
- Cut into squares and serve once the dish has cooled to room temperature.
