Dear /ck/. I think I just invented a new way to make pizza. Picture related.

So yesterday I was watching TV and eating a Dominos pizza. I couldn't find the ingredients list on the box so I went to my freezer and got out the frozen pizza that I bought from the supermarket (yes, I do love pizza) and looked at the ingredients list. Then I realized I could probably recreate the basic idea of a pizza using ordinary kitchen ingredients like sliced bread and pasta sauce.

I admit, my pizza won't taste nearly as good as the real thing but it's still pretty tasty.

So here's my recipe. It only requires 5 ingredients and takes only 3 minutes to prepare.

>>4989382
Ingredients:

1 slice of white bread (8 cents)
Get the cheapest bread you can find since the taste won't matter.

20g (one slice) cheese (19 cents)
I used block cheese since it's a bit cheaper. Sliced processed cheese will work too. Grated cheese will also work but all the ones I found in the shop were too expensive.

20g pasta sauce (9 cents)
This is about enough to completely cover one side of the bread. Get whatever is your favorite pasta sauce. If you don't have a favorite brand, then just get whatever happens to be the cheapest.

20g precooked meat (18 cents)
I used precooked sausages for price and convenience. 20g is about a third of a whole sausage. Although any precooked meat will work too, such as ham. Just don't use raw meat.

10g diced onion (4 cents)
Unless you want to chop your own onions, get a bag of frozen diced onions. It's a tiny bit more expensive but infinitely more convenient. Oh, and don't bother defrosting them beforehand because it'll go straight into the microwave with everything else. 10g is about a tablespoon.

Total: 58 cents (actual total was a bit lower in my case since the sausages, onions, and cheese were on sale)

>>4989383
Instructions:

1. Toast the bread in a toaster. Otherwise, you'll end up with soggy bread.
2. Cover one side of the toasted bread with pasta sauce. Easy.
3. If you are using sausages like me, get about a third of a single sausage and cut coin-sized slices off the sausage and put them on the pizza so it looks like pepperoni. Do this until the pizza is completely covered. If you are using ham, then just chop it up and put it on the pizza in the same way.
4. Next put the diced onions on the pizza. Again, make sure it's spread around the pizza.
5. Put the cheese on the top of the pizza so that it covers the meat and onions.
6. Now put the whole thing in the microwave and zap it on high for 1 minute.
7. Pizza!

Tip 1: You can also add capsicum, olives, BBQ sauce, herbs, etc. to make it more realistic if you have them.

Tip 2: Try putting the meat and onions on top of the cheese instead of under it.

Someone else (not me) copied my thread onto this board. The OP of this thread isn't me.

Anyway, I posted this on the other thread as well:

"OP here. The inspiration for my pizza was a beef & onion pizza from Dominos. I agree it would look better if it was done in the oven but that would take ages.

Also try substituting mushrooms if you don't like onions or if the pasta sauce is already too onion/garlic-y."

I don't know why this thread is here. Or that this board even existed. I always post on /b/ and very rarely, /sci/.

This seems like a style of sandwich more than a pizza. OP's doesn't look that great, but it's impossible to say from just a pic. But the idea of toasted sandwiches is sound...it's just going to depend on the quality of the bread, cheese, sauce and other toppings.

>> No.4989446

>>4989382

Good ol' ghetto pizza... A few remarks for you, OP:

1. Lightly toast your bread with a soft brushing of olive oil. It'll help make the bread taste better

2. Try reducing the spaghetti sauce a little bit by pouring the sauce in a pan and cooking out some of the liquid at medium high heat. This will help thicken up the sauce and concentrate the flavors

3. Toaster-oven it, don't nuke it. This will make your ghetto pizza come out crispy. preheat your toaster oven for 400F (204C) then let it cook until the cheese has melted and your toppings have a nice brown on top.

With just a little more effort, nasty stoner food has become semi palatable normal people food

I used to do this with naan bread. Grill for 1-2 mins each side to cook it, then spread with 1tbsp passata, a couple of thin slices of irish cheddar and some sliced ham or chorizo. Grill for another few minutes to melt cheese.

It tasted all right, but I only did it a few times as pizza nauseates me. At the time I was quite ill so was unable to stand up in my kitchen long enough to make real food without collapsing.

I use English muffins, you can buy "pizza sauce" in a squeeze bottle too. I always keep pepperonis in the freezer since I like cheese and the husband likes peperoni, so I always just buy the cheese pizza and add th meat to his side.

English Muffins are the way to go, though.

OP from the thread from /b/ here. I agree the original picture looks kind of gross.

So I tried it again but this time with the cheese underneath the meat and onions. Looks and tastes much better.

I don't want to use the oven to cook something so small, plus its summer here and the house is already too hot - but if you have some time to spare and want it to look and taste better then use an oven instead of a microwave. If you have even more time, cook the onions separately on a stove until they start to turn a bit brown. And since they'll get crispier in an oven, only toast the bread halfway.

Also try adding (sliced) mushrooms. I don't have any at the moment but I would imagine meat+onions+mushrooms would taste much better and be more pizza-like than just meat+onions.
