Instructions

  1. Combine flours and pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Make a well in the centre. Add yeast and sugar.

Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes or until dough is smooth and elastic. Lightly spray a clean bowl with oil. Place dough in bowl and set aside, covered with plastic wrap and a clean tea towel, in a warm place for 30–40 minutes or until dough has doubled in size.
  2. Preheat oven to 220°C or 200°C fan-forced. Lightly spray a 36cm pizza tray with oil. Combine prawns, garlic and rind in a bowl.
  3. Punch dough down with a fist. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 30 seconds until smooth. Roll dough out to a 35cm x 20cm rectangle. Lift onto prepared tray.
  4. Arrange tomatoes, onion and zucchini over dough. Top with prawn mixture and bake for 20–25 minutes or until base is crisp and golden.
  5. Top with pesto and bocconcini. Sprinkle with basil to serve.

Notes

SERVING SUGGESTION: Baby cos lettuce, drizzled with ¼ cup (60ml) fat-free Italian dressing. TIPS: • Cook’s notes: To remove excess moisture, drain cut tomatoes and zucchini on paper towel until ready to use. • Add it: 2 tbs basil pesto spread over base in Step 3. • Swap it: Bocconcini for 1 cup (100g) grated reduced-fat mozzarella cheese added in Step 4.
