Method
- Heat ½ tbsp oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat and fry the mince, spices and a pinch of salt for 7-10 mins until browned and cooked through. Stir in the tomato purée and 4 tbsp water for the final 2 mins of cooking. Tip into a bowl and wash the pan. Preheat the grill to high and place a baking sheet under to heat up.
- Meanwhile, whizz the flour, ½ tbsp olive oil and 100ml water with a pinch of salt in a food processor until it comes together as a dough. Divide into 4, then roll each piece into an oval about 10 x 20cm on a lightly floured surface. Pinch the ends together so they're slightly pointed.
- Heat ½ tbsp olive oil in a frying pan over a high heat. Cook 2 pides at a time for 2-3 mins until the base is golden and the dough has puffed up slightly. Set aside and repeat with the remaining bases and oil.
- Carefully remove the baking sheet from the grill and add the pide bases. Top with the mince mix and red pepper, then grill for 5-8 mins until lightly golden and cooked through. Top with the red onion and herbs and drizzle with the extra oil, if you like. Serve with lemon wedges to squeeze over.
