Steps:
- Make the dough:
- in a large bowl dissolve sugar in water. Sprinkle yeast over water and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Stir in 2 cups flour and salt and blend mixture until it forms a dough. Knead dough on a floured surface, incorporating as much of remaining 1/4 cup flour as necessary to prevent dough from sticking, until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
- (Alternatively, dough may be made in a food processor. Proof yeast as described above. In the food processor process yeast mixture with 2 cups flour and salt until mixture forms a ball, adding more water, 1 teaspoon at a time, if too dry or some of remaining 1/4 cup flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if too wet, and knead dough by processing it 15 seconds more.)
- Put dough, prepared by either method, in a deep oiled bowl and turn to coat with oil. Let dough rise, covered with plastic wrap in a warm place 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk, and punch down. Dough is now ready to be formed into pizza.
- Make the pizza:
- In a medium heavy saucepan cook onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic in oil, covered, over moderately low heat, stirring, until celery is softened, about 10 minutes. Add tomatoes and juice, thyme, and cayenne and simmer, uncovered, stirring, until mixture is very thick, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
- Stir in shrimp and cook sauce, stirring, until shrimp are cooked through, the liquid they give off is evaporated, and the sauce is thickened.
- Preheat oven to 500°F.
- Sprinkle cornmeal on an oiled 14-inch black steel pizza pan or black steel baking sheet. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface into a 14-inch round and fit into pan. Sprinkle dough with half of mozzarella and top with shrimp Creole, spreading mixture evenly, and remaining cheese.
- Bake pizza in lower third of an electric oven or on floor of a gas oven 10 minutes, or until crust is golden.
Tips:
- Choose fresh and succulent shrimp: The quality of the shrimp will greatly impact the final dish, so make sure to select the freshest and most flavorful shrimp available. Look for shrimp that are firm, translucent, and have a slightly briny smell.
- Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cook very quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Overcooked shrimp will become tough and rubbery. Cook the shrimp for just a few minutes per side, or until they are opaque and pink.
- Use a flavorful marinade: Marinating the shrimp in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs will help to enhance their flavor. Try using a combination of garlic, ginger, cumin, turmeric, paprika, and chili powder.
- Use a crispy pizza crust: A crispy pizza crust will provide a sturdy base for the pizza and help to prevent it from becoming soggy. You can use a store-bought pizza crust or make your own using a simple recipe.
- Don't overload the pizza with toppings: A heavily topped pizza can become soggy and difficult to eat. Use a moderate amount of toppings and make sure to distribute them evenly.
- Bake the pizza at a high temperature: Baking the pizza at a high temperature will help to create a crispy crust and prevent the pizza from becoming soggy. Aim for a temperature of around 450°F (230°C).
Conclusion:
Indian-style shrimp pizza with mozzarella is a delicious and unique twist on a classic dish. By following these tips, you can easily create a flavorful and satisfying pizza that will impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a new pizza recipe, give this one a try.
