- 1/2 cup tomato passata (puréed tomatoes)
- 1 clove garlic
- 10 1/2 ounces button mushrooms
- Himalayan salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 pound 2 ounces grass-fed beef thigh bones filled with marrow (Ask your butcher for these)
- 1/4 cup salsa verde
- 2 large handfuls baby beetroot or rocket leaves
- 1 cup buckwheat flour
- 1 1/2 tablespoons arrowroot
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon Himalayan salt
- Scant 1/2 cup water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (unpasteurized)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
- Place two 8-inch pizza trays or 2 large flat baking trays (baking sheets) in the oven to preheat for 15 minutes.
- To prepare the base, place the ingredients in a medium bowl and stir to form a thick batter. Divide the batter in half.
- Spoon half of the batter on a large sheet of baking paper. Cover with another sheet and roll out to form an 8-inch disc. Leave on the baking paper and set aside. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Combine the passata and garlic in a small bowl. Spread the passata over the bases and scatter with the mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place the bones in a small roasting tray. Roast for 20 minutes, or until the marrow is golden brown and gelatinous.
- Transfer the pizzas on the baking paper onto the preheated trays.
- Cook for 20 minutes, or until the bases are crisp and mushrooms golden brown.
- To serve, scoop the roasted marrow out of the bones and spread over the mushrooms. Drizzle with salsa verde. Top with baby beetroot or rocket leaves.
