Method

Heat the oven to 200C, gas 6. Blitz the cauliflower in a food processor and tip into a microwave-safe bowl. Cook on high for 5-6 mins, until softened. Carefully squeeze out any excess water in a clean tea towel, then mix with the egg, oregano and Parmesan, and season.
Spread the cauliflower mix onto a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper, to a circle about 23cm wide. Spray with the Frylight and cook for 10 mins.
Mix the tomato purée with a little hot water and spread onto the cauliflower base. Top with the mozzarella, sweetcorn and pepper, and cook for a further 10 mins. Top with rocket and serve.

Top tip for making cauliflower pizza:

Don’t be afraid to add on other veggies to your pizza. Chopped tomatoes, spinach leaves and peppers work well and will help you reach that all important five-a-day target.
