n Makes 6 n Prep 15 mins plus 1-2 hrs rising n Cook 10 mins

-

500g pack bread mix

1 tsp olive oil, plus a little extra

for the dough

2 medium onions, chopped

2 garlic cloves, chopped

250g extra-lean beef mince

2 tsp each ground cumin and cinnamon 1 tbsp red chilli flakes

5 tbsp tomato purée

6 tbsp pomegranat­e molasses

400g jar sweet pickled peppers,

roughly chopped

50g feta, crumbled

1 tbsp pine nuts

1 Mix the dough following pack instructio­ns (leave about 2 tbsp of the bread mix in the bag for dusting and rolling out later). Knead for 8-10 mins, then coat the dough in oil, place in a large bowl and cover. Leave to rise until doubled in size. The warmer your kitchen is, the faster it will rise, but generally it should take 1-2 hrs.

2 Heat the oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 9

(or the highest setting). Sprinkle two baking trays with a little of the reserved flour and put in the oven to heat up.

3 Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan until hot. Add the onions and garlic, and cook for a few mins until softened. Add the beef and let it brown for about 5 mins, breaking up the mince as it cooks. Pour off any excess oil. Add the spices, chilli flakes, 2 tbsp of the tomato purée, 5 tbsp of the pomegranat­e molasses and some seasoning. Cook for 1 min, then remove from the heat.

4 Divide the dough into six balls. Sprinkle the remaining flour over a work surface and roll out the dough, each to about 25cm across. Remove the trays from the oven and place two pizza bases on each (you’ll need to cook in batches). Spread the remaining tomato purée on each base. Top with the meat mixture, peppers, feta and pine nuts. Cook for 10 mins or until the bases are cooked through and golden brown around the edges. Drizzle over the remaining pomegranat­e molasses and serve.
