This clever pizza recipe with a cauliflower base is the perfect treat for those of us who need to avoid gluten.

Ingredients

  • 1 small cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 1/4 cups (150g) almond meal
  • 3/4 cup (60g) finely grated parmesan
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 zucchinis, thinly sliced into ribbons
  • 1 cup (240g) ricotta, crumbled
  • 4 thin slices prosciutto, torn into strips

Mint pesto – makes 3/4 cup

  • 1 bunch mint, plus extra leaves to serve
  • 1/2 bunch flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 garlic clove, chopped
  • 1/4 preserved lemon, flesh and white pith discarded, rind chopped
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/4 cup (25g) almond meal
  • 1/2 cup (125ml) extra virgin olive oil

Method

  • Step 1
    Preheat 2 baking trays in a 200C oven. Whiz cauliflower in a food processor until it resembles couscous. Combine 4 cups cauliflower in a bowl with the almond meal, parmesan and eggs, then season.
  • Step 2
    Place 2 sheets of baking paper on the bench and, using one-quarter of the cauliflower mixture for each pizza, place 2 mounds on each piece of paper, shaping into 5mm-thick (16cm diameter) pizza bases.
  • Step 3
    Carefully transfer the pizza bases to the preheated trays, then bake for 20 minutes or until dark golden and firm.
  • Step 4
    Meanwhile, toss zucchini with 1 tbs salt. Set aside for 20 minutes. Rinse then drain.
  • Step 5
    For the mint pesto, whiz herbs in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the garlic, preserved lemon, lemon juice and almond meal, then whiz to combine. With the motor running, add the oil in a steady stream until smooth. Season with pepper.
  • Step 6
    Divide ricotta, zucchini and prosciutto among the pizza bases, then return to the oven for 5 minutes or until heated through. Drizzle the mint pesto over the pizzas and garnish with mint leaves to serve.
