PIZZA MEXICANA

Makes :
1 large pizza

Preparation Time :
35 minutes

Cooking Time :
40 minutes

Preparation Method :

  • Sift the flour into a mixing bowl and add the yeast and salt, making a small well in the top. Mix the water and oil together into the bowl and gradually combine to a sticky dough.
  • Lightly flour the work surface and knead the dough for about 10 - 12 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Heat the oil in a medium-sized saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and gently saute for 3-4 minutes, until starting to soften.
  • Add the chillies and red pepper and cook for a further 1-2 minutes, then add the steak mince and cook over a medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes, until lightly browned all over.
  • Add the tomato puree and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in the water and beans and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is thoroughly cooked and the sauce is spreadable. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 220°C / 425°F / Gas Mark 7. Place the pizza bases on two baking trays.
  • Spread the salsa over the pizza base, then top with the beef mixture.
  • Scatter over the jalapeno peppers and cheese and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melting and turning golden and the base is crisp.
  • Garnish with the guacamole and fresh coriander and serve immediately.
