Recipe: Sweet Potato Tortilla Pizza

Servings: 1-2


Ingredients:

  • 2 tortillas (medium-sized)
  • 200 g (7 oz) cooked sweet potato
  • 2-3 tbsp mayonnaise 
  • Ketchup, for drizzling
  • 80 g (2¾ oz) shredded cheese (e.g., mozzarella)
  • 8 slices of salami

Instructions:

  1. Cook the sweet potato: You can either bake the sweet potato in the oven at 200°C (400°F) for 45 minutes or microwave it for 6-8 minutes until soft. Once cooked, mash the sweet potato in a bowl.
  2. Mix the sweet potato mousse: Add 2-3 tablespoons of mayonnaise to the mashed sweet potato and mix until smooth.
  3. Assemble the first tortilla pizza:
    • Lay one tortilla on a flat surface.
    • Spread half of the sweet potato mousse evenly over the tortilla.
    • Drizzle a bit of ketchup on top.
    • Sprinkle 40 g (1⅓ oz) of shredded cheese over the sweet potato.
    • Place 4 slices of salami evenly on top.
  4. Add the second layer:
    • Place another tortilla on top of the first one.
    • Repeat the same layering steps: spread the remaining sweet potato mousse, drizzle with ketchup, add 40 g (1⅓ oz) of cheese, and top with the last 4 slices of salami.
  5. Cook in the air fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 200°C (390°F). Place the tortilla pizza in the air fryer and cook for 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crispy.
  6. Serve: Slice the tortilla pizza and serve immediately!

Tips for the Dish:

  • Ingredient Substitutions: You can substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt for a lighter option or use vegan cheese and plant-based mayo for a dairy-free version.
  • Toppings: Feel free to swap salami with other toppings like pepperoni, ham, or even mushrooms for a vegetarian option.
  • Make Ahead: You can prepare the sweet potato mousse in advance and refrigerate it for up to 3 days, making it easier to assemble the pizzas later.
  • Freezing Instructions: Once assembled, freeze the uncooked tortilla pizza wrapped tightly in foil. When ready to cook, pop it straight into the air fryer without thawing—just increase the cooking time by 2-3 minutes.
