Cauliflower Crust Cheese Pizza

• 1 head cauliflower, about 750g
• 100 g ground almonds
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 tbsp dried oregano
• handful grated Parmesan
• to taste Salt and pepper

1. Divide the cauliflower into florets and discard the outer leaves and the core.
2. Place in a food processor and blitz briefly until shredded into couscous size grains.
3. You might need to do this in two batches.
4. The recipe I was following said to place the cauliflower rice in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 5-6 minutes on high.
5. I don't have a microwave and found another recipe where it suggested spreading thinly in a large roasting pan, rubbing in a little olive oil, and baking for 10 minutes at 200C/Gas 6.
6. It caught slightly so I'd suggest a lower heat for about 6-8 minutes.
7. Pile the cooked cauliflower rice in the middle of a clean kitchen towel and squeeze it tightly so that all the liquid is removed.
8. All the recipes I looked at stressed that this is really important to get a dry pizza base.
9. I think microwaving probably creates more liquid as I didn't get that much.
10. Place the 'rice' in a bowl and add the ground almonds, eggs, oregano and cheese.
11. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
12. Place baking parchment on a baking tray and brush liberally with olive oil.
13. Pile the pizza base mixture in the middle and then use your fingers to spread it out into a thin round.
14. Bake in the hot oven for 15 minutes until golden.
15. Allow to cool completely, then add your pizza toppings.
16. I used some leftover tomato and bacon sauce I'd made for pasta and some grated Cheddar cheese and Parmesan.
17. Place in the oven and cook for 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbling.
18. Eat!
