Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Unroll the pastry on its paper and put on a baking sheet. Score a 1cm border around the edge, then bake for 10 mins until puffed up.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat; fry the onion and peppers for 6-8 mins until softened and golden. Season and set aside. Add 1 tbsp pesto to a bowl with 1 tbsp water; season with black pepper, stir, then set aside.
- Press down the pastry inside the puffed up border. Spread the tomato sauce within the pastry border, then scatter over the peppers and onion. Top with the mozzarella, tomatoes and dot with the remaining pesto. Bake for 15-18 mins until browned.
- Toss the lettuce through the pesto dressing to coat and serve alongside the puff pastry pizza.
