Prep: 15 mins + Proving Time
Cook: 20 mins
Makes: 8 Scrolls
INGREDIENTS:
- ½ quantity of basic pizza dough
- 1 tablespoon pizza sauce
- 1 ⅓ cups (150g) Perfect Italiano Perfect Pizza cheese
- 1 cup (200g) baby spinach leaves, coarsely chopped
- ¼ cup (40g) roasted capsicum, finely diced
- ¼ cup (35g) char-grilled eggplant, finely diced
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Begin your culinary masterpiece by rolling out the pizza dough, creating a rectangle with dimensions of 20cm x 30cm. Place the dough so that the longest edge is closest to you, ready to embrace the flavorful fillings.
- Embark on a journey of taste by evenly spooning the pizza sauce across the surface of the dough. Let the canvas come alive as you sprinkle one cup of Perfect Pizza cheese, creating a melting embrace that promises delight in every bite. Top the cheese with the coarsely chopped baby spinach, finely diced roasted capsicum, and the char-grilled eggplant, each ingredient adding its unique touch to the symphony of flavors.
- With the fillings in place, it’s time to transform the dough into the perfect scrolls. Begin from the longest edge, rolling up the dough to enclose the delicious filling and forming a tantalizing cylinder. Carefully cut the cylinder into eight equal pieces, revealing the swirls of flavor within.
- Pie Maker Method: For ultimate convenience and efficiency, preheat your pie maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Place four scrolls into the preheated pie maker, allowing the magic to unfold within its confines. After 5 minutes, open the lid and sprinkle a touch of extra Perfect Pizza cheese over each scroll. Close the lid and cook for another 5 minutes or until the scrolls are cooked and adorned with a glorious golden hue. Repeat this process with the remaining scrolls and cheese, ensuring that each bite is a testament to your culinary prowess.
- Oven Method: If you prefer the gentle embrace of the oven’s warmth, preheat it to 200°C (180°C fan-forced). Line a baking tray with baking paper, creating a cozy space for your scrolls. Place the scrolls onto the baking tray, ensuring a distance of approximately 2 cm between each scroll. Crown the scrolls with the remaining Perfect Pizza cheese, adding the final touch of indulgence. Allow the scrolls to bake for 15-20 minutes, watching as they transform into golden perfection and are cooked through.
TIPS:
- Freezing: Embrace the convenience and prepare a batch of these flavorful scrolls to enjoy later. Once cooled, place the cooked scrolls into a zip lock bag or containers, allowing you to freeze them for up to one month. To relive the delectable experience, simply reheat the scrolls in a pie maker for 5 minutes, and you’re ready to enjoy a slice of comfort anytime you desire.
Elevate your pizza game and create a culinary masterpiece that marries the comfort of scrolls with the excitement of pizza flavors. With the Roasted Capsicum & Eggplant Pizza Scrolls, your taste buds are in for a symphony of taste, texture, and delight that’s perfect for any occasion.
