Preparation
1
Prep the Veg

  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
  • Drain and pat the mozzarella dry. Tear into small pieces.

2
Assemble the Flatbreads

  • Mix together half the passata and ½ tbsp sugar (double both for 4p).
  • Season with salt and pepper. You've made your base sauce!
  • Use a knife or scissors to cut a small triangle out of the top of each flatbread, so they resemble love hearts. 
  • Divide the sauce between the flatbreads. Use a spoon to spread the sauce over the base, leaving 1cm on the side as the crust.

3
Make the Pesto

  • Spread the pepper slices evenly on the flatbreads
  • Bake in the oven for 7-8 mins.
  • Meanwhile, add 2 tbsp oil (double for 4p), grated Italian cheese, pine nuts and half the rocket to a food processor and grind to a paste. 
  • Add water or oil if a looser consistency is desired. You've made your own pesto! 

4
Serve Hot

  • Just before serving, toss the remaining salad leaves with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper.
  • Remove the flatbreads from the oven and cut into even slices.
  • Scatter torn mozzarella over the top. 
  • Dollop small drops of pesto all over the flatbreads and arrange the dressed leaves on top.

TIP: This dish will pair beautifully with a pinot noir!
