Yellow paw paw and prosciutto pizza

A delicious sweet and savoury combo

Papaya is an excellent source of vitamin A, provides nearly three times the recommended daily intake of vitamin C, and is a good source of folate, dietary fibre, magnesium, potassium, copper, and vitamin K.

Ingredients (serves 2-4)

• 2 large Lebanese flatbread wraps, or pre-baked pizza bases
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 1 garlic clove
• 250 g yellow paw paw
• 100 g prosciutto, thinly shaved
• 120g fresh ricotta
• 2 handfuls rocket

METHOD
Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Slice garlic clove in half and rub flatbreads with cut side. Brush breads with olive oil.

Crumble ricotta over bases. Peel, de-seed and thinly slice paw paw, then layer over ricotta. Cut prosciutto slices into large ribbons and arrange over other ingredients.

Bake on a pan or pizza stone for six minutes, until prosciutto is sizzling and bases are just crisp. Top with rocket and drizzle with a bit of extra oil, slice into wedges and serve warm.

Tip: For an extra crispy base, bake pizza directly on oven rack.
