  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan 180°C, gas mark 6). Line a baking tray with baking paper.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Bake the base in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until it is set and slightly golden at the edges.
  5. Meanwhile, add the mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes until they're softened and lightly browned.
  6. Take out the baked base from the oven. Spread the passata evenly over the base, ensuring a thin even layer without making it soggy.
  7. Sprinkle the mozzarella evenly over the passata, then top with the cooked mushrooms and ham slices.
  8. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
