Method

Preheat the grill and place a baking sheet under to heat. Heat ½ tbsp olive oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the mince, spices and a pinch of salt. Fry for 7-10 mins, until the mince is browned and cooked through. Stir in the tomato purée for the final 2 mins of cooking. Tip into a bowl.
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 equal pieces; on a lightly floured surface, roll each one into an oval shape.
Place the frying pan over a high heat and add 1⁄2 tbsp olive oil. Add two pides at a time and cook for 2-3 mins, until golden. Repeat with the remaining bases.
Carefully remove the baking tray from the grill and place the pides on it. Top with the mince mix and red pepper and place back under the grill for 3-5 mins, until the pides are lightly golden and cooked through. Serve each pide topped with the red onion and herbs and drizzled with the remaining oil.
