- Step 4Using a rolling pin, flatten the balls to the desired size. Cover with a damp cloth and leave it to expand 30 minutes.
- Step 5Meanwhile, prepare the topping. In a frying pan, sauté the spices and the meat over high heat for approx. 5 mins. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Step 6Preheat the oven to 220°C. Spread the tomato sauce over the pizza dough. Add the lamb, a few sprigs of thyme and bake for approx. 15 mins.
