Ciabatons – (Ciabatta Baton Mini Pizzas)

Ciabatons – (Ciabatta Baton Mini Pizzas)

We’re finding Gluten free self raising Flour almost impossible to get hold of now. So we experimented with plain GF flour and Baking Powder from the local Polish shop. To be fair I take responsibility for the fact that I got the quantities wrong and my Ciabatta didn’t rise as well as I had hoped. But we sliced it and popped it in the freezer. We had some Tomato Puree which needed using up and a bit of Chorizo loitering in the fridge. So Sue created these extremely tasty mini Pizza  thingies!

As far as the recipe goes I’ll pretend we can get Self Raising Flour, hopefully the present shortage is a temporary thing.

Ingredients for the Ciabatta:-

240g Self raising Gluten free flour
½ tsp Salt
The chopped leaves from 2 sprigs of fresh Rosemary
240ml Milk
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
4tbsp Mayonnaise

Method:-

(1) Mix all the ingredients to a batter sort of consistency.
(2) Preheat the oven to 200c.
(3) Pour into a Bread Tin and cook for 30 minutes or until it golden brown.
(4) Tip out onto a cooling rack.

Ingredients for the topping:-

Chorizo very finely chopped
Tomato Puree
½ tin of chopped Tomatoes
Onion finely chopped
Minced fresh Garlic
Mixed Herbs
Grated Cheese
Fresh Parsley

Method:-

(1) Slice the Ciabatta to about 1cm think.
(2) Fry the Onion and Garlic gently.
(3) Add all the other ingredients except the Cheese and simmer for at least half a hour.
(4) Spread what is now a spicy Pizza sauce of the Ciabatta.
(5) Sprinkle with grated Cheese and grill until the Cheese has melted.
(6) Sprinkle with fresh Parsley.

Really? This is a Government Employee?Dear Jody,
                 Firstly I thank you for your reply. Although I found is somewhat difficult to understand. I would expect a reasonably level of literacy from a Government Employee.
 
Please see below:-
 
Your message “ Hi Antony,
 
If they wasn't able to do that for you, you can download it off the Gov.uk website and if you put in the search bar uc50 and its the top one that you can download and complete. 
 
Kind Regards Jody “
 
I would prefer this to have been phrased:-
 
“ Hi Antony,
 
If our department or our sub-contractors were unable to assist you with this, you can download it from the Gov.uk website. By inserting “uc50” in the search bar you will find the 24 page full colour .pdf file. If you could possibly download and print this we will reimburse you for the cost involved, as this is clearly our mistake.
 
Kind Regards Jody “
 
I did not receive your form. Possibly because your system caused us to be homeless and living in a tent for 8 weeks? No postal service etc. I will however complete your form and walk a 3 mile round trip with a heart condition to drop it off at Job Centre Plus York. I'm sure it would be much more convenient for me to die on the way. 
 
However, with the assistance and in partnership with various charities we visited 10 Downing Street yesterday to deliver a petition against UC. We sincerely hope it forces change and makes your position as an employee more tenable and doesn't lead to the system you have to enforce killing too many more people.
 
As we only receive £430+ a month and the cartridges for the printer cost us £48 I think it only fair that you reimburse us. I can provide the WH Smiths receipt.
