Ingredients

• Almond flour - 150 grams
• Mozzarella cheese (shredded) - 100 grams
• Cream cheese - 50 grams
• Egg - 1 large
• Baking powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Cooked pork (shredded) - 200 grams
• Panang curry paste - 2 tablespoons
• Coconut milk - 100 ml
• Fresh basil leaves - 10 grams
• Red bell pepper (sliced) - 50 grams
• Lime (for garnish) - 1

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, 50 grams of shredded mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, egg, baking powder, and salt. Mix until a dough forms.
3. Press the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to form a pizza base, about 1 cm thick.
4. Bake the pizza base in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
5. While the base is baking, in a small saucepan, mix the shredded pork with Panang curry paste and coconut milk over medium heat. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until warmed through.
6. Once the base is done, remove it from the oven and spread the Panang pork mixture evenly over the pizza.
7. Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and sliced red bell pepper.
8. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and melted.
9. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh basil leaves, and serve with lime wedges.
