Make the pesto by blitzing the olive oil, basil and garlic with the zest and juice of half a lemon using a food processor. Add a dash more olive oil if you need to. Season with salt to taste. Store in a jar and use for other dishes as well.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).

Wrap the dishcloth/muslin around the cauliflower and squeeze as much of the moisture out as you possibly can.

Tip into a bowl and add the arrowroot, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, olive oil and salt. Combine well until it resembles a ball of dough. Tip onto a tray lined with parchment paper and shape into a round, thin pizza shape. Place in the oven for 20 minutes.
