Steps

01. In a medium jug, combine water, olive oil and sugar. Sprinkle yeast over liquid and set aside in a warm place 5 mins until foamy.

Turn dough onto a floured surface, knead 5 mins until smooth and elastic. Transfer to a lightly greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap. Set aside in a warm place 45 mins until doubled in size.

03. Preheat oven to very hot, 220 C. Warm 2 x 28-cm round pizza trays.

04. Punch dough with fist to release gas. Knead 1 min. Divide in half. Roll each piece on a floured surface to a 28-cm round. Lightly grease preheated trays, and transfer bases.

05. In a bowl, combine remaining yoghurt and curry paste. Spread half on each base, leaving a 1-cm border. Overlap potato slices on top. Bake 15 mins.

06. In a frying pan, melt butter over medium heat. Saute onion 1- 2 mins. Transfer to a bowl. Increase pan to high heat, add lamb, cook in 2 batches 4-5 mins each. Transfer to bowl with onions and peas, combine.

07. Sprinkle half paneer over pizza bases. Top with mince mixture and remaining paneer. Bake 5 – 8 mins until golden. Slice pizza and top with mint and chutney.
