Cut a whole pumpkin in half and remove the seeds and fibrous centre, sprinkle with olive oil and lots of salt and pepper.

Once cooked, remove the outer layer and blitz in a processor into a soupy consistency.
Stretch the pizza dough over plenty of semolina.

Add clumps of Roquefort cheese, torn sage leaves and pecan nuts.
Pour a little basil oil over the top of the pizza.
