Mongolian Spiced Lamb Pizza

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses Quick Meals
Mongolian cuisine is all about meat. The distinct flavor of lamb can be polarizing, but for those who love it, this pizza is a treat. Using cumin and coriander seeds gives an authentic Asian flavor profile that works surprisingly well with tomato acidity and creamy cheese.

Instructions

1 ✓

Make a quick sauce: dice tomatoes and simmer with crushed garlic and half the spices until thick (approx. 10 mins).

Tip: Tomato water content must evaporate, otherwise it makes the dough soggy (reduction).
2 ✓

Meanwhile, brown the lamb in a pan with oil and remaining spices.

Tip: Sear the meat, don't steam it! Brown bits provide flavor (Maillard reaction).
3 ✓

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Tip: Hot oven is a prerequisite for crispy pizza.
4 ✓

Spread sauce on dough, scatter browned meat and cheese on top.

Tip: The meat is cooked, cheese just needs to melt on it.
5 ✓

Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.

Tip: Watch the cheese; if it's spotty brown, it's ready.
6 ✓

Sprinkle with parsley before serving.

Tip: Fresh herbs refresh the overall look.

Recipe FAQ

Can I use other meat?
Lamb gives the real character, but it works with beef too.
