Ingredients
Directions

- Step 1: Place the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt into the bowl of a stand mixer (if you don’t have a mixer, just use your hands in a bowl).
- Step 2: Add the water and mix on medium for 4-5 minutes or until the dough is smooth.
- Step 3: Roll the dough into a ball, place it back into the mixing bowl, and cover with a tea towel. Leave it at room temperature for 1 hour or until it has almost doubled in size.
- Step 4: While that's proofing, prepare the topping by mixing all the other ingredients in a separate bowl.
- Step 5: Once the dough is proofed, divide it into 6 even portions and roll each tightly. Cover and leave to rest for 10 minutes.
- Step 6: Preheat your pizza oven to 400 c/750 f or your oven to its maximum temperature. If using an oven, you will need a pizza stone, heavy tray, or cast iron pan inside the oven as well.
- Step 7: Roll out each dough ball very thinly, then spread the mince mixture thinly, leaving a 1cm edge around the outside.
- Step 8: Place into the oven for 3-6 minutes, depending on its temperature. You are looking for a nice colour on the dough and for the meat to be cooked through.
- Step 9: Serve with fresh parsley and a squeeze of fresh lemon.
