Recipe: Taj mahal pizza
I had a pizza the other day. It was called a taj mahal.
Ingredients:
One large pre made pizza crust.
Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with salt
add:
6 oz of shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup canned garbanzo beans
1/4 cup pickled jalapenos
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 Tbs curry powder
1 /2 cup green olives
1 cup red onion sliced thin
Bake at 425 for 8 to 10 min
It may sound weird but it is delicious.

It actually does sound pretty good - but dry...I'd be tempted to use hummus or at least mash the garbanzos
sounds weird, but I am now hungry anyway:)
Are pickled jalapenos hot?
Oh man...thats sounds delicious.
jeannie: that would work, The cheese, olive oil and onions actually keep it pretty moist but if you're used to tomato sauce it may seem a little on the dry side.
etain: thanks for visiting, I thought it sounded weird but I ate it on a recommendation and was pleasantly surprised.
BBC: Not generally if you get the kind in the glass jar. the ones in the can are sometimes really hot.
dazd: It's one of my new favorites.
Sounds very weird, but worth a bite to try... I love jalapenos, raisins and red onions, so...
Happy Wednesday, Hammer !
that does sound interesting. I like jeannies idea of using hummus...
you come up with some interesting recipes.
i think i would add sliced roma tomatos and some basil and feta cheese as well.
hmmm
thanks
YOur recipes are always good but I would hesitate to make this one due to the curry and beans. But hey, I've been surprised before at my age! While the raisins may sound strange, I know that they are the basis for some wine flavors,therefore, ya can't go wrong!
Ummm...that sounds pretty disgusting. ;)

I have to wipe the dribble off my keyboard.
You forgot the most important part- he entire contents of a lavalamp.
Sorry, I am still trying to figure out the BBQ chicken pizza...
hey what bbq chicken pizza??? I want the recipe to that one.
I'm only hesitating on that jalepeno's and curry. After a couple abdominal surgeries I can't take hot at all. It tears me up to the point of needing to go to the hospital. hehehehe
Curry Pizza? I guess thats fusion fast food - India/Italy. Except that Pizza was invented in the US and curry like that in the UK. I like hot - in Germany all pizzas come with pickled jalapenos...
annie: thanks, happy wednesday :)
l>t I'm sure all kinds of variations can be made, the curry, white cheese and lack of tomato sauce makes the base idea.
infinitesimal: I make one like that...with chopped garlic and rosemary too.
nomas: I'm sure there are substitutions, not everyone likes garbonzos, I bet artichoke hearts would be a good replacement.
steven: lol you should see it ;)
dan: hehe wait till you smell it. You'll need a sponge strapped to your chin ;)
phosgene: lol, I made a pizza once with the meat from hotwings. My son said it was good.
burfica: I see your point. Could be a dangerous combination for some folks.
mutley: very good point. Almost all Chinese food served here in the states was invented in America too. The Indian restaurant I frequent also has many things that I'm sure never came from South Asia.
Hammer, you are a terrorist. Nobody puts raisins on a pizza. Virgins coming your way.
Just one day after telling us about the goddamn swan-diving roaches at the Mexican resturant, at least it's not an enchilada recipe...
yummy!
Sounds great... except for the pickled jalapenos. Yep this former jarhead is a complete wuss when it comes to that....
galactically: I guess bamboo shoots and lemongrass are out of the question then ;)
gudis: I like this blog to be a roller coaster of emotions ;)
tkkerouak: thanks, enjoy :)
gunz: Bell peppers would work too.
Your rear will thank you later ;)
Hammer,
Sorry, can't eat anything with garbanzos on it...They sound like a circus act! "And now for the flying Garbanzos!" Nope, not my style...but I bet the pizza would have been just as good if they added Chick Peas!

raisins. *shudder* You'd ruin a perfectly good pizza with raisins??
flyinfox: nah chick peas sound like an incontinent blind date ;)
janet: /sings/ I heard it through the grapvine.....
I'm a big fan of pesto pizzas with slivered almonds and tiny sausage balls...
falafel on a pizza actually sounds good, come to think of it...

I'll try any food once. This sounds pretty darn good! I don't actually know what garbanzo beans are though!! I'll go have a look for them. Ta for that =)
I'm going to try it even though I don't like curry powder.
