Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup crème fraîche or sour cream
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (plus more for garnish)
  • 4 oz smoked salmon, sliced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon capers (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped (for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a pizza stone if you have one.
  2. Prepare the Potatoes: In a small bowl, toss the thinly sliced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well coated.
  3. Assemble the Pizza Base: Roll out the pizza dough onto the prepared baking sheet or pizza stone. If using store-bought dough, follow the package instructions for size and thickness.
  4. Pre-bake the Crust: If using a pizza stone, pre-bake the crust for about 5 minutes until it’s just starting to turn golden and firm up. If using a baking sheet, proceed directly with the next step.
  5. Layer the Potatoes: Arrange the sliced potatoes evenly over the pizza dough, pressing them down slightly. If you like, sprinkle a little mozzarella cheese over the potatoes for extra melty goodness.
  6. Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the crust is golden and crispy.
  7. Prepare the Creamy Sauce: While the pizza bakes, in a small bowl, mix the crème fraîche (or sour cream), softened cream cheese, and chopped dill until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Assemble the Toppings: Once the pizza has finished baking, remove it from the oven. Immediately spread the creamy sauce over the pizza, leaving a small border around the edges. Arrange the smoked salmon slices, red onion, and capers (if using) on top of the creamy sauce.
  9. Garnish and Serve: Drizzle with lemon juice for a fresh touch, and garnish with fresh dill and chives. Slice and serve immediately!

Notes

  • You can use different types of cheese, like goat cheese or ricotta, for a different flavor profile.
  • For a crispier potato texture, you can par-cook the potato slices in the microwave or a skillet before adding them to the pizza.
  • If you want a non-dairy version, use a dairy-free cream cheese and sour cream substitute.
  • If you’re not a fan of capers, you can replace them with olives or even a few pickled onions.
