Cooking Steps

Prepare
1
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C.
  • Thinly slice the courgette.
  • Slice the onion into thin half rings and slice the mushrooms.

Did you know... courgettes are technically classified as a fruit, as are cucumbers, pumpkins and tomatoes. Courgettes are high in iron, vitamin C and calcium.

Fry the vegetables
2
  • Heat half of the olive oil in a frying pan over high heat and fry the mushrooms for 3 - 5 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Heat the rest of the olive oil in the same pan over high heat and fry the courgette for 4 - 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Make the pizza
3
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl combine half of the green pesto with the crème fraîche and three quarters of the cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Roll out the pizza dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread the pesto mixture over it. 
  • Top the pizza with the courgette, onion, mushrooms and the rest of the cheese, then bake in the oven for 13 - 15 minutes.
Serve
4
  • Take the pizza out of the oven and drizzle with the rest of the pesto (see Tip).
  • Slice the pizza and serve on plates.

Health Tip: this recipe is high in calories. If you're watching your calorie intake, skip adding the rest of the pesto. You can keep it in the fridge to use in another recipe the next day.
