Ingredients
  

  • For the dough:
  • 250 grams plain flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • About 120 ml water
  • For the topping:
  • Ground salt
  • Ground black pepper
  • Grated nutmeg
  • 1 tub Sheese chive flavour but you only need 3 tablespoons
  • 1 courgette thinly sliced

Instructions
 

  • Start by making the dough. Into a medium-sized bowl add flour, salt and oil. Mix with a fork and then slowly add water until it combines fully. You might need more water, but don’t worry. Just add a little at a time.
  • Once the dough has combined, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead carefully to form a ball. You can make the dough a day ahead – just make sure to cover it with cling film to stop it from drying out.
  • Preheat the oven to 250°C/fan 230°C/480°F/Gas Mark 9 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces; cover the one you won't be using right away.
  • Roll out the dough thinly, about 3 mm in thickness. You want the dough to be as thin as it can be without breaking. We like to make these in a rectangular shape, however, you can roll the dough out into a circle or whatever shape you wish.
  • In a bowl, combine three tablespoons of Sheese with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Use the same amount of nutmeg as your usual salt and pepper seasoning.
  • Spread the mixture on top of the dough, leaving a small space at the edge for your fingers, then top with sliced courgette.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown at the edges.
  • Transfer to a cutting board and slice into easy-to-eat portions.
  • Top with salad herbs if you wish, for extra greenery.
