Roll out the pastry and cut into 9cm (3in) circles. Place these on to baking sheets lined with non-stick paper. Top each round with 2.5ml ( tsp) tomato pure and spread over the pastry.

In a bowl, toss the ham, tomatoes and courgette slices together in the olive oil.

Take generous handfuls of the ingredients and place them on to the pastry rounds and then top with a small piece of mozzarella cheese. Bake the mini pizza tarts in the oven for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
