Tuna/Salmon gravalax pizza with anchovy aioli- 4/07/12
The next time you are making pizzas take a different route and try something different as the Tuna/salmon gravalax pizza served with anchovy aioli!
You will be so surprise as how good this pizza comes out! First you heat up the flour tortilla in a lightly oiled pan, then you smeared lightly the top of the tortilla with BBQ eel sauce, and then you topped it with fresh cut Tuna (sushi grade) and a layer of salmon gravalax. I just happened to have extra salmon today but you can definitely use only Tuna for this recipe. Next, add some colorful vegetables: cherry tomato, daikon sprout, thinly sliced red onion, jalapenos, and olives and then drizzle the whole pizza with anchovy aioli! Simply delicious and also so appetizing to look at!
I served this dish at my Japanese theme dinner and it was a hit! Everyone love this dish and it was voted best dish of the evening.
