Savoy Cabbage and Sunroot Pizza
Ingredients for pizza:
Lemon - 1 (halved)
Sunroot - 2.2 lbs (A.K.A Jerusalem Artichoke)
Whole milk - 1 1/2 cups
Salt and Pepper - as needed
Onions - 1 (sliced)
Savoy cabbage - 1lbs
Pizza dough - as needed
Emmental cheese - 1/2 cup (grated)
Pecorino cheese - 3 tbsp. (grated)
Thyme - 1 tbsp.
Olive oil - as needed
Method of preparing the pizza:
  1. Preheat the oven to 500°F (260°C). Fill a large bowl with water, squeeze the lemon into it, peel the sunroots and place them in the bowl for 10 minutes.
  2. Remove the sunroots and cut each one into medium-thick slices, put them back in the lemon water (to prevent browning).
  3. Remove half of the sunroot slices, pat them dry and place them in a skillet. Cover the roots in 1 cup milk and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and slow cook for 15 minutes.
  4. Fish out the sunroots, and put them in a blender. Add 1/2 cup of milk and blend until you have a paste.
  5. Put the paste back in the skillet and cook over medium heat while stirring for 3 minutes. Add salt and pepper.
  6. In a deep pot over low heat, fry the onion with olive oil until it softens (approx. 7 minutes). Add the Savoy cabbage and keep stirring for 12 minutes.
  7. Remove the rest of the sunroot slices from the lemon water bowl. Pat them dry, and fry on medium heat with 2 tbsp olive oil until they turn crispy.
  8. Flatten the dough on a floured surface into 2 circles. Evenly spread the paste on each circle, and add the cabbage, fried sunroot, and Emmental cheese.
  9. Place the dough on a baking sheet and bake for 5-10 minutes, until the dough is golden, and the cheese fully melts. Remove from oven, sprinkle with pecorino and thyme, and allow 3 minutes cooling before finally serving.
