Method - Dissolve yeast in 25 ml lukewarm water. Add about 2 tbsp of the flour, mix to a smooth paste and leave to rise under a cloth for 30 mins. - Take 350g of the flour in a bowl and make a crater in centre (save 50g for final kneading). Place the salt, yeast liquid and remaining water in the crater. Work the ingredients together with well-floured hands, kneading continuously for about 10 minutes. - When the dough is elastic cut it into 4 pieces of the same size. Form the pieces into balls and leave them to rise for 2 hours or until doubled in size. - Use one ball for one pizza, kneading for a couple of minutes. Press out and flatten the dough using the knuckles and stretch it into a thin round circle with the palm (use a rolling pin if necessary). - Flatten the pizza, again with your knuckles, leaving 2cm from the edge raised to create the crust (cornichone). - For the filling (which should be prepared prior to the dough), cook the pumpkin squares in a saucepan with the butter, salt and pepper until soft. - Blitz in a food processor or mash. Add the pumpkin puree to the pizza base. - Sprinkle some mozzarella on top before adding the pancetta, oregano and parmesan. - Place on a lightly floured and (olive) oiled pizza stone or baking tray. - Bake in the oven at 180°C for about 16 minutes. Check after 8 minutes and rotate the tray if necessary.

Method - Marinate the fillet of beef in the fish sauce and keep to one side. Heat the oil in a wok and add the red curry paste. - Add coconut milk and kaffir lime leaves. Season with fish sauce and palm sugar. - Mix in the pumpkin and cook about 5 minutes before adding the Thai aubergines, string beans mixed peppers and chilies. - Cook for 2 minutes then throw in the Thai sweet basil and serve in the curry bowl. - Grill the beef until medium to well and cut in thick slice, place it on top of the curry. - Garnish with roasted pumpkin seeds and serve with Thai Jasmine rice.
