Instructions

1

a) Preheat your oven to 200°C.

b) Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.

2

a) Drain the mozzarella.

b) Pat it dry with kitchen paper making sure you squeeze out as much liquid as possible.

c) Tear into pieces.

d) Grate the Cheddar.

3

a) Spread the pizza sauce onto the bases leaving a 1cm border around the edge.

b) Sprinkle on the Provencal herbs.

c) Top with the mozzarella and Cheddar.

d) Bake directly on your oven racks until golden and the cheese is bubbly, 10-12mins.

4

a) Meanwhile, heat a frying pan on high heat (no oil). When hot, add the peppers. Cook until charred, 6-8 mins total.

b) Turn only every couple of mins - this will result in the veg picking up some nice colour.

d) Season with salt and pepper, then transfer the veg to a bowl.

5

a) Pop the rocket into a bowl with a drizzle of oil and season with salt and pepper, toss.

b) When the pizzas are ready, remove from the oven and pop onto your plates.

c) Top with the charred peppers.

6

a) Drizzle the fresh pesto over the pizza.

b) Finish with a scattering of the rocket salad and a drizzle of the balsamic glaze.

Enjoy!
