Method

01
To make the base, bring the water, oil, herbs, salt & pepper to the boil then reduce to a simmer. Sift in the flour and mix vigorously with a whisk until smooth. Reduce the heat to medium and beat for 10 minutes with a wooden spoon until thick.

Transfer to a clingfilm lined tray and set aside to cool.
03
Meanwhile preheat the oven 180C. Mix the courgette strips will all the other ingredients and spoon onto 2 foil lined trays, spaced out. Bake for 15-20 minutes until sticky and glazed.
04
Once the gram flour mix is cool, use a cookie cutter to cut out the desired size of pizza base.
05
Heat 1cm oil in a frying pan and fry over a medium heat for 4-5 minutes each side until golden and crispy on the outside but soft in the centre.
06
Drain and top with your desired toppings. Serve with the courgettes.
