Lasagna pizza

Ingredients

• ¼ cup (60ml) olive oil
• 500g (1lb) beef mince
• 1 brown onion, finely chopped
• 1 carrot, grated
• 6 garlic cloves, finely grated
• sea salt and black pepper
• 1½ tbsp tomato paste
• ¼ tsp chilli powder
• 2 cups (500ml) beef stock
• ⅓ cup (80ml) milk
• 1 egg yolk
• 500g mozzarella, sliced
• 60g Parmesan cheese, grated
• ⅓ cup flat leaf parsley leaves, finely chopped

Directions

1. For the dough, use my pizza dough recipe.
2. For the lasagna sauce, heat half the oil in a large heavy based frying pan over medium high heat. Add the beef and cook, until well browned, for 8-10 minutes, breaking up with the back of a wooden spoon.
3. Heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook the onion and carrot for 5 minutes, until softened, seasoning with salt.
4. Add the garlic and cook for a further minute. Stir in tomato paste and cook until starting to darken, 2-3 minutes.
5. Stir in chilli powder then stock. Add the beef mince to the pan and bring to a simmer. Cook for 10-15 minutes, until thickened slightly.
6. Stir in milk and return to a simmer, then remove from heat. Add egg yolk and stir in quickly to incorporate.
7. Transfer mixture to a bowl and set aside to cool.
8. Preheat a pizza oven to 450°C (840°F).
9. Stretch the dough on a lightly floured surface to fit your pizza peel or baking surface.
10. Spread some of the lasagna sauce on dough, then top with mozzarella slices and some Parmesan cheese.
11. Bake for 90 seconds to 2 minutes, aiming for a crispy bottom and golden cheese topping.
12. Sprinkle some parsley and drizzle with a little olive oil, then slice to serve.
