Ingredients

• 225g boneless Welsh Lamb leg steaks (1 large or 2 small leg steaks) or leftover roast lamb
• prepared fresh ready rolled pizza dough – enough for 1 pizza
For the seasoning
• 1 tbsp oil
• 1 aubergine, sliced lengthways
• 2 courgettes, sliced lengthways
• 100g reduced fat green pesto
• 150g feta cheese, crumbled
• 1 pomegranate, seeds only
• handful rocket leaves
For the seasoning
• zest and juice of 1 lemon
• 50ml extra virgin olive oil
• 1 clove garlic, crushed or finely chopped

Method

1

Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment.

2

On a floured surface roll out the dough into a thin rough oval shape, and place on the tray. Leave to stand for few minutes.

3

Heat a non-stick griddle or frying pan until hot and brush with oil. Lightly char the courgette and aubergine slices on both sides for a few minutes.

4

Spread the pesto over the dough. Top with slices of courgette and aubergine. Place in the oven and cook for 15-20 minutes until the base is crisp.

5

Meanwhile, cook the lamb steak. Drizzle a little oil over the steak on both sides and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, season and allow to rest for a few minutes, then cut into slices. Tip: you could use leftover roast lamb if you prefer.

6

In a small bowl mix the dressing ingredients together and set aside.

7

When the pizza is cooked, top with the feta, pomegranate seeds, rocket leaves and sliced lamb. Drizzle with the lemon dressing and serve immediately.
