Preparing Lamb Doner Kebab Pizza
Preheat your kitchen oven to approximately 500 degrees.
Roll out the dough to either slightly smaller than your pizza stone (if you have one) or on a metal tray for the kitchen oven.
Alternatively, if you have a pizza oven, roll out to be smaller than your pizza peel.
First, spread the sauce around. This pizza calls for Doner Sauce. Spread the Doner Sauce evenly using the back of a large spoon or the blunt side of a knife.
You should start by adding the largest ingredients, then work your way down. The last is any cheese topping, such as Mozzarella, which you should evenly cover the other toppings with, and then finally any herbs.
The toppings to include on this pizza are;
- Lamb
I find this pizza great tasting as is, or you could pair it with another pizza as well?

About Doner
The word Döner is Turkish for “rotate”, and Kebab broadly refers to meat cooked on skewers over a fire. A Doner kebab is a Turkish name for meat cooked on a vertical spit or rotisserie.
Doner are often a healthier fast food choice, because doner meat isn’t deeply fried, unlike other street foods.
Pizza Tools
When making Lamb Doner Kebab Pizza, I suggest you just use what you have available, without spending any money. My recommended basic pizza tool list is…
Pizza Steel
Very similar to a pizza stone, a pizza steel is made of, you guessed it, steel. It’s a great modern method to heat pizza well in a normal oven.
Rubber Spatula
A quality rubber spatula really helps when it comes to scraping bowls and plates, etc.
Dough Mixer
Having a good dough mixer can make all the difference. You don’t want to be manually kneading forever, do you?
Lamb
This savory meat pairs incredibly well with a variety of flavors, making it an ideal choice for your next homemade pizza pie. Lamb can be incorporated into pizzas in many different ways.
Ground lamb is a popular option for making a traditional Mediterranean-style pizza with warm spices like cumin and oregano, as well as feta cheese and olives.

Pizza making FAQ
Below we’ve compiled the most common pizza making questions and provided expert answers. Are you looking for how to make delicious pizza at home? Please read on!
Can I put foil on a pizza stone before making pizza?
No. The pizza stone needs to be in contact with the pizza base for it to do its job effectively. It helps absorb moisture from the dough and heat it evenly. Putting foil between the dough and stone will prevent that from happening properly.
What to serve with pizza at a party?
Pizza goes really well with garlic bread, salads and pasta. In fact, you can serve just about any party food with pizza, and it would work.
How long to let pizza dough rise?
Some pizza dough recipes suggest only a few hours, whereas you can also use long fermentation techniques to make it go for 3-5 days.
