Today is first day of Vegan Mofo(Month of Food October) aka Pizza mania month on this blog. The score is 1. Lets see if we can get to 30. #HeckYeahVeganPizza all month! I think hubbs is going to not eat pizza in November after this ;)If you have a request for a fave pizza. Drop me a comment!
I don’t know why I never added Mangoes to my Pizza. Super ripe mango scoops, some spicy chili, some evoo on a super easy super pillowy Crust.. Heaven!
I picked up a good load of Hatch Chiles and made some stews, some roasted chile pesto and was wondering what else to do with them. I happened to have a ripe mango sitting on the counter and decided to mix them up.
I decided to make a white fluffy basic crust with a mild garlic flavor for the base. And everything together is yummilicious!
I am going to try a new crust with each pizza post this month too. so lets see how that goes..
The mofo and home hunt gods might have to fight it out for my time 😉
Steps:
Proof the yeast with sugar and warm water.
Add the flours, salt, garlic powder, evoo. Add salt to the flours and not directly to the yeast mixture.
Mix it up with a large spoon and continue mixing or knead for 1-2 minutes. Spray water on top and cover the bowl with a heavy damp towel.
Let sit for 1.5 hours or until doubled.
Add a few Tablespoons of flour on top, oil hands and gather the dough.
Gather the dough and knead for a minute until not sticky.
Make a flat ball and pull lightly from the center out to the edges. Pat and pull onto the parchment to desired size. or roll it using some more flour.
I kept mine about 1/2 inch thick. Since the dough is not kneaded for long, it will not be very smooth. It will still bake out rustic and airy. For smoother and easy to roll out dough, knead the dough for 5 -6 minutes.
Top with ripe mango scoops, hatch chile and spring onions.
Bake in preheated 410 degrees F for for 14 minutes.
Broil on low for 1/2 minute.
Take out, top with fresh chopped cilantro and serve.
there are some extra hatch chiles under the mangoes:).
Mango and Hatch Chile Pizza with White Garlic Pizza Crust
Soy, dairy, egg, corn, nut free . Makes a 12-14 inch pizza
Ingredients:
Crust:
1/2 cup warm water
2 teaspoons raw sugar
1 teaspoon active yeast
1 cup bread flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 Tablespoon evoo (extra virgin olive oil)
bread flour for rolling and working the dough
Toppings:
1-2 Tablespoons evoo
1 ripe mango, cut into scoops
1 hatch chile sliced
green onions
black pepper
fresh cilantro
Method:
(See step pictures above) Warm 1/2 cup of water. Add sugar and yeast and mix.
Let sit for 10 minutes until frothy.
Add the flour, salt, garlic powder, evoo and using a large spoon mix it all(1 minute).
Cover with damp towel and let sit for 1.5 hours or until doubled.
Sprinkle 2-3 tablespoons bread flour on the dough. Oil your hands and gather the risen dough.
Knead for a minute. Add more flour if needed.
Make a flat ball and pull lightly from the center out to the edges. 1-2 inches.
Place on parchment lined sheet and keep pulling till desired size.
(Or alternatively you can roll it out using a rolling pin on a well floured surface. The dough is not a well kneaded and hence not a well gluten formed dough, so it doesnt roll out easily. It will still bake out rustic and airy. Knead for 5-6 minutes to form a smoother dough, and then roll it.)
Brush evoo liberally on top.
Place mango scoops and hatch chile slices.
Add chopped green onions and black pepper.
Bake in preheated 410 degrees F for 14 minutes.
Broil on Lo for half a minute to brown the crust a bit.
Take out, top with fresh chopped cilantro and serve!

Looks so pretty! I’m sure it tastes awesome. I’m going to try this when mangoes are back in season here. 🙂
you have to!:)
You’re genious and this step by step pic is really inspirational.
Thank you go vegans!
That is so pretty!
wow, this looks really delicious!
that is one gorgeous pizza, richa. i swear, it looks like there is some white cheese on there. are you gonna make white pizza one day? that was always my favorite. with lots of garlic!
my request is for you to make a gluten-free crust that is JUST AS GOOD as non-gluten-free. soft, pillowy, pull-aparty. dayv has been whimpering about missing it lately ;(
Thanks Caitlin! no cheese on this one.. its just the white crust. the broil browns some of the exposed portion and the rest looks white and soft!:)
I would have never thought about this combo but wow this looks great!!
It tastes amazing too!
That is one of the most beautiful pizzas I have ever seen! Way to kick off MOFO! If you need inspiration, this was my favorite pizza, ever: http://goodcleanfood.wordpress.com/2012/06/02/thin-crust-sriracha-bbq-tofu-and-moxerella-pizza/
I’d love to see a Richa spin on it! xx
Thanks Somer. i definitely need to add a bbq and srirach!! pizza to the arsenal!
Mangoes on a pizza! I love this idea so much! I am so excited to see your month of pizza posts. 🙂
Thanks Melissa
Gorgeous! Why didn’t I think of mango on a pizza? It makes so much sense since pineapple is always a welcome choice. I clearly need to make up for lost time. It looks amazing!!!
i loveee the mango on the pizza. with the heat from the chile, it is ahmaazing!
This is gorgeous! What a fantastic combination.
What an amazing creation Richa! It looks wonderful!
I am living vicariously, I am allergic to mangoes 🙁 I can appreciate their beauty especially on this pizza.
Look forward to MoFoing with you. Great way to start.
oh no.. i am allergic to pineapples, so mangoes do the sweet and spicy pizza for me 🙂
I’ve never thought of putting mango on pizza, but why not? It’s so pretty and i imagine it tastes good, too.
WOW I love this pizza..super yummmm!!!

This looks like the kind of wacky inventive pizza we’d find in Japan! Gorgeous.
hmmm. i have never been to japan..:)
I don’t know what is more gorgeous: this pizza or the pictures of the pizza? Seriously, that is one amazing looking pizza- every part of it has my heart swooning. I can’t wait to see the rest of your pizzas- if anyone could do a month of vegan pizza justice, it would be you. Happy MoFo, RIcha! xo
i hope i can do jsutice to the pizza month too!
Oh my! This sounds absolutely amazing! I am all about the hatch chile experience right now.
you need to get on that train!
Friend, your bread-making skills blow everyone out of the water–so stinkin’ impressive!! And this pizza looks so good! I’m gonna have to eat pizza for dinner tonight, thanks 🙂
welcome back Ms hallrawween 😉
The mango color truly brings out the Pizza really well. Great innovation I must say Richa 🙂

That pizza is bee-yoo-ti-ful! I die over the crust. So yummy!
Yum!These pictures are making my mouth water. Love the mango and the hatch chiles! What a perfect combo.
Best,
Sihi
thanks Sihi!
Oooohhh I’m living your first pizza post for MoFo. Putting ripe mango on pizza sounds like an awesome idea!! 🙂
you have to try it if you can spare a ripe mango:)
YUMMO!!! I LOVE mango, chilli and coriander – and matched with pizza? Well that just has to be heavenly!
Gorgeous pizza and pictures!! You don’t roast and peel the Hatch chiles? I’ve never seen them used raw/unroasted/unpeeled!
I may have to try this. The Boyfriend sends me loads of the roasted/peeled/frozen ones fresh from Hatch, New Mexico every fall. I’ve used them on pizza but not with mangos – brilliant!!
i dint know we couldnt eat them raw. i make some pre roasted/peeled ones in other things too. 🙂
This is gorgeous. I can’t wait to see what else you’ll come up with this month.
I love the idea of adding mango to the pizza!, delicious… Looks pretty good too
Thanks!
I’m not a huge fan of sweet and savoury but I still want to try this! I think the chilli would balance it all out really well! Hooray for a month of pizzas!
this is looking so pretty richa. mangoes & chilies both together in a pizza must be wow.
it sure is.. mangoes and spice = deliciousness
Oh wow, this is making me hungry! I love mangoes on a pizza and this one looks especially beautiful. 😀
YUM TIMES ONE MILLION!!! Bravo!
I know you haven’t posted very many yet, but this is my favorite flavor combo by far! Fresh ripe mango mixed with chiles and garlic just sound spectacular together.
I LOVE a bit of sweetness and heat on my pizza’s – I have never tried mangoes before…totally brilliant Richa!!
I am so excited for your MoFo theme – Justin and I are Pizza Friday peeps, and are always looking for new ideas!!!
I can replace the bread flour with regular flour?
yes, all purpose or unbleached white flour
