Day 4 of Cajun week – another fusion concept.  As I work with these flavors more, I really have begun to appreciate the versatility of the ingredients but ultimately, the similarities of foods across cultures.  I needed to make Creole sauce for my Sunday night plans and I decided I would make extra and use it in a number of ways.  My family loves pizza – who doesn’t.  My son had requested a pizza so I checked with him if it would be ok if I put this Creole spin on this dish.  He said he was game.

Digressing to share the Creole Contessa‘s offering this day, a quote from her post

“It’s Day 4 of Cajun Week with The Creole Contessa and Feed Your Soul Too. I must admit, I am starting to get full with all this great food Feed Your Soul Too and I have been cooking up this week. I guess I can make room for another dish, so I decided to cook up a nice big, hearty, pot of Cajun AndouilleRagu.”

I guess she is using fusion too.  Cajun Ragu – is that Cajun or Italian?cccc4 361edited

The full Creole experience was completed by topping the pizza with chicken andouille sausage, onions and peppers.

Ingredients:

Creole Sauce:

  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 1/2 of a green pepper, diced
  • 3 stalks of celery, diced
  • 8 baby carrots, diced
  • 1 tbsp each molasses and light corn syrup
  • 1 tbsp each light and brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp oregano
  • 15 oz crushed tomatoes
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tbsp canola oil

Directions:

Heat oil in a pot and add the first 3 ingredients and sweat for about 5 minutes.

Mir Poix 500

Add the carrots, molasses, corn syrup, and both of the sugars and cook for a few minutes.

Spices and sauce added 500

Add the tomatoes, oregano and bay leaf.  Simmer for 30 minutes.

Tomatoes added 500

Ingredients:

  • 1 pizza crust (I actually used a store bought – try it Mama Mary’s – it was really, really good)
  • 1/2 each red and green pepper sliced
  • 1 chicken andouille sausage
  • 3/4 cup of shredded mozzarella
  • 1/4 cup shredded parmesan

Pizza pre-cook 500

 

Directions:

Once the sauce is ready, spread it on the pizza crust covering the whole pizza but be sure to err on the lighter side.  Next add the mozzarella and 1/2 of the parmesan cheeses.  Then, spread the sausage and peppers over the pizza and top with the remaining Parmesan cheese.  Bake in a 450 degree oven for 8 minutes.  Enjoy!
