They like them with a very thin, crispy pastry base rather than a yeast bread base."

DIRECTIONS
- Roll the pastry to 1/4"/5mm.
- Mix the finely chopped chilli with the sun-dried tomato paste or finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes and spread all over the pastry. Look for the tubs of sun-dried tomato pesto beside the regular basil pesto in the fridge section of your supermarket. It makes a great tasty pizza sauce.
- Bake in a hot oven (200C or 400F) for 8 minutes.
- Zest and juice the lime.
- Combine the shredded crab meat, lime zest, lemongrass and a little of lime juice.
- Slice the mozzarella into about 6 slices.
- Remove the pastry from the oven and scatter the crab mixture and mozzarella slices over the top. Add a grind of black pepper and salt to taste.
- Put back in the oven for about 10 minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbling.
- To serve, scatter the rocket over the pizza while still hot. Thin the mayonnaise with the rest of the lime juice and drizzle over the rocket.
