Directions

  1. 1

    Peel and slice the garlic. Clean and trim the mushrooms. Larger ones may need to be halved. Clean and wash the peppers. Cut out stars from the red pepper. Cut the rest of the cuttings into pieces. Cut remaining peppers into rings.

  2. 2

    Peel and wash the carrots and cut them first diagonally into thicker slices, then into sticks. Wash the herbs and dab dry. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pan. Fry the prepared vegetables in portions until golden brown. Finally season with salt and pepper. Push the vegetables to the edge with a spatula. Put 1-2 tablespoons of sugar in the middle of each pan and let them caramelise until golden brown. Reduce heat, add a few stems of herbs, a bay leaf, a few juniper berries and a few slices of garlic. Deglaze with about 2 tablespoons of vinegar and some stock and boil off the sugar. Put the vegetables and stock in a shallow bowl and let it cool down. Prepare the rest of the vegetables in the same way. Season to taste with salt, pepper, sugar, vinegar and olive oil. Place cling film directly on the vegetables or brew and leave to marinate in the refrigerator for a few hours, preferably overnight. Cut the pizza dough into finger-thick strips.
