Method
0 of 9 done- Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan 180°C, gas mark 6). Line a baking tray with baking paper.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk the egg until well beaten, then stir in the cottage cheese. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper for seasoning.
- Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture onto the prepared baking tray, spreading it into a circle about 15 cm in diameter. Ensure an even layer thickness.
- Bake the base in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until it is set and slightly golden at the edges.
- Meanwhile, add the mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes until they're softened and lightly browned.
- Take out the baked base from the oven. Spread the passata evenly over the base, ensuring a thin even layer without making it soggy.
- Sprinkle the mozzarella evenly over the passata, then top with the cooked mushrooms and ham slices.
- Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
