Tips for the best Cassava pizza

  • Let the turkey come up to room temperature for 15 minutes before cooking so it cooks evenly.
  • Read the whole method before you start and measure out the 8 ingredients first — it keeps the pace relaxed once the heat is on.
  • Taste as you go. Seasoning at the end is fine, but adjusting halfway through gives a more balanced result.

Variations

  • Individual portions: divide into ramekins or a muffin tin and reduce the baking time by about a third.
  • Fusion twist: keep the method but swap the spices for your own favourites — the Venezuela base takes well to it.
  • Vegetable boost: stir in a handful of spinach, peas or diced peppers in the last few minutes of cooking.

Serving ideas

Pairs well with a simple salad and a glass of something cold.

Storage

Cool completely, then refrigerate in a sealed container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave until piping hot. Freezes well for up to 3 months.
