- In a bowl, combine the crème fraiche, chilli (to your heat preference), a drizzle of olive oil, and some salt. Set aside.
- Remove pizza and tomatoes from the oven and turn down to 200 degrees. Spread out tomato slices on pizza and sprinkle over grated mozzarella. Top with artichokes and olives.
- Return to oven until the mozzarella has melted, about 3-6 minutes.
- Plate up pizzas and top with dollops of rocket pesto and chilli crème fraiche. Scatter over the torn watercress and drizzle over the cooking juices from the tomato tin foil parcel. Season to taste.
