Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F).
2. In a pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic, ginger, and Sichuan peppercorns. Stir-fry for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Add the ground Halal beef to the pan and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks.
4. Once the beef is browned, add the Doubanjiang, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
5. Crumble the firm tofu into the beef mixture, gently mixing to coat the tofu with the sauce. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, then remove from heat.

7. Spread the beef and tofu mixture evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
8. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously on top of the tofu mixture.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
10. Remove from the oven, garnish with sliced spring onions and red chili flakes, and let cool for a couple of minutes before slicing.
11. Serve hot and enjoy your unique Halal Mapo Tofu Pizza!
