Cover with plastic warp and leave in warm place for about 1-2 hours or dough doubled in size.

Heat the oven to as high as it will go (about 190°C/200°C fan/gas 9) and sprinkle one or two baking trays thinly with cornmeal.

Put the tomatoes,onion,bell pepper,chillies, spring onions, finely chopped parsley, beef mince, spices, 1 tsp salt,cumin and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper into a bowl and mix well.
