INSTRUCTIONS
- 1Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius - top and bottom heat. Wash the zucchini and cut off the ends. Grate on a fine grater. Salt and thoroughly squeeze out all the water.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and form a 25 cm diameter disc on it. Bake for 20 minutes.
- 2Meanwhile, prepare the tomato sauce. Finely chop the onion and sauté it in olive oil until golden. Add crushed tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Reduce for about 10 minutes. Then blend everything and add torn basil leaves.
- 3After 20 minutes of baking, a firm and golden crust will form. At this point, spread the tomato mixture over it, arrange mozzarella slices, tomatoes, and pepper strips. Bake for another 15 minutes. Serve with fresh basil.
