Instructions

Preheat oven to 200C. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Evenly spread potato and kumara slices in a single layer on prepared tray (don’t use pointy ends). Drizzle over olive oil. Place in oven and cook for 15 minutes until starting to soften. Remove and set aside to cool a little.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine garlic and tomato puree.
When potato and kumara bases are cool enough to handle, dollop 1 teaspoonful of purée mixture on each base. Spread evenly with the back of a spoon. Layer on onion slices, corn kernels and mushrooms. Sprinkle over herbs and cheese. Finish with tomato halves.
Slide tray back into oven and cook for another 12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden and the bases are cooked through.
To serve, divide evenly among plates and cut in half or quarters to make wedges.

Variations

Make it vegan: Use a vegan mozzarella.
