This garden inspired recipe uses mange tout or sugar snap peas and goats cheese with mint for a really fresh and colourful pizza. It’s surprisingly light to eat and works deliciously with a crispy white wine or glass of rosé.

Spread a ladle of tomato sauce around the pizza dough base with the base of the spoon.

Bake for 2-3 mins turning regularly. Garnish with edible flowers and a drizzle of mint herb oil.
