How to cook deliciously - Spiced Lamb Pizza

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).

2. Stage

Mix onion, cilantro, and lemon juice together in a bowl; set aside. Dust a baking sheet with flour.

3. Stage

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir lamb in the hot skillet until mostly cooked through, breaking into little pieces with the back of a wooden spoon, 5 to 6 minutes.

4. Stage

While the lamb is cooking, stretch dough out onto the prepared baking sheet until you get an oval shape. Let rest for 1 minute, and stretch it again if it shrinks.

5. Stage

Bake dough in the center of the preheated oven until puffy and mostly cooked, 5 to 7 minutes.

6. Stage

Add tomato paste, garlic, cinnamon, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper flakes to the cooked lamb. Mix it all together and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.

7. Stage

Remove dough from the oven and brush with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add lamb mixture and evenly distribute over the crust.

8. Stage

Return pizza to the oven and bake for 2 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until crust is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes longer.

9. Stage

Remove pizza from the oven. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into 8 pieces. Top with the onion-cilantro mixture.
