Lamb Pizza

This savoury lamb pizza offers a sophisticated twist on a takeaway favourite, swapping standard toppings for a rich, slow-cooked ragu. The topping features quality lamb mince simmered with San Marzano tomatoes, fresh thyme, and aromatic oregano to create a thick, flavourful base that sits perfectly on a homemade crust. By browning the lamb and discarding the excess fat, you are left with a lean, protein-rich meal that feels indulgent yet balanced.

Ideal for a weekend dinner or a high-protein post-workout treat, these individual pizzas provide a substantial and comforting meal. The recipe makes four smaller pizzas, making them easy to handle and perfect for serving alongside a fresh Greek salad or some roasted courgettes. Using a hot oven ensures the dough becomes beautifully golden and crisp, providing the perfect foundation for the succulent herbed lamb topping.

Ingredients for Lamb Pizza

  • Pizza Dough

  • 2 colheres de sopa de azeite de oliva

  • 675g (750 g) lamb mince from the leg

  • 325g (230g /250 g) chopped yellow onion

  • 2 dentes de alho, picados

  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves

  • 1 colher de chá de orégano seco

  • 725ml (500g /560 g) canned plum tomatoes, preferably San Marzano, with their juices

  • 120ml (120ml /125 ml) beef or lamb stock

  • 1 colher de chá de sal kosher

  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

  • Cornmeal and plain flour for dusting

  1. Make the dough and let rise the first time as directed.

  2. To make the topping, in a large, heavy frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Add the lamb and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the lamb to a bowl, then discard the fat in the pan.

  3. Return the pan to medium heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until tender and lightly golden, about 8 minutes. Return the lamb to the pan, add the thyme and oregano, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and stock and crush the tomatoes with a fork to release the flavour. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until most of the liquid has evaporated and the mixture is thick, about 45 minutes. Season with the salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.

  4. Meanwhile, divide the dough into 4 equal pieces, shape each piece into a disk, and let rise for a second time as directed. Preheat the oven to 204°C (200°C). Dust 2 large rimmed baking sheets with cornmeal.

  5. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out 1 dough disk into a round about 6 inches (15 cm) in diameter and 1/2 inch (12 mm) thick. Pinch around the edge to create a 1/2-inch (12-mm) rim, and place the round on one-half of a cornmeal-dusted baking sheet. Arrange one-fourth of the lamb mixture evenly over the crust, leaving the rim uncovered. Repeat to assemble the second pizza, placing it next to the first one on the other half of the baking sheet.

  6. Bake until the dough is set and golden brown, 10-12 minutes. Meanwhile, assemble the remaining 2 pizzas on the second pan and slip them into the oven when the first batch is done. Cut all the pizzas into slices and serve.
