Preheat oven to Gas Mark 6, 200°C (400°F). Heat 2 large baking sheets in the oven for 10 minutes.

To prepare the toppings: Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat, season the lamb and add it to the pan.  Cook for 4-5 minutes or until it is brown.  Remove the lamb using a slotted spoon and set aside. Wipe out the pan with a piece of kitchen paper.

Heat a little oil to the frying pan then add in the onion and red pepper. Cook for 4-5 minutes until soft, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic, cumin, coriander and 2 tablespoons of passata.  Stir to combine and allow to cook for 1-2 minutes. Add back the mince and stir it though the ingredients in the pan.  Taste and season.  Remove from heat.

Spread each pizza base with 1 tablespoon of passata followed by the mince mixture.  Break up the mozzarella and add it to the pizzas along with some pine nuts.

To bake: Place the pizza bases on the warmed baking sheets. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until bases are crisp.

To serve: Spoon over the yogurt. Top with rocket and a drizzle of olive oil.
