2. Bring the water to a boil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and add the cauliflower. Cook over a medium heat, covered, for about 10 min,stirring occasionally.

3. Drain the cauliflower in a sieve, rinse with cold water, then drain well. Spread the cauliflower out on a tea towel, roll it up and wring out any remaining water.

4. Whisk the eggs in a bowl, then add the cauliflower, cheese, oregano and salt.

5. Remove the crusts from the oven. Spread them with tomato sauce and bell peppers, then finish baking them for 10 min. at 200°C (fan oven).

6. Meanwhile, toss the rocket with the lemon juice. Break the crispy ham into smaller pieces and sprinkle on the finished pizzas along with the rocket. Serve immediately.
