Treat your ingredients with care...

• Prawns — Make sure to devein the prawns before using them in the recipe to remove any grit or sand.
• Squid — To achieve tender squid, either cook it quickly over high heat or simmer it gently for a longer period of time. Avoid overcooking, as it can result in rubbery texture.

Tips & Tricks

• If you prefer a milder spice level, adjust the amount of sambal sauce according to your taste.
• Experiment with different seafood toppings such as clams or mussels for added variety.
• For an extra burst of freshness, squeeze some lime juice over the pizza before serving.
• If you don't have access to sambal sauce, you can substitute it with a combination of chili paste and shrimp paste.
• To achieve a crispier crust, preheat your baking sheet or pizza stone before placing the rolled-out crust on it.

Presentation advice

For an appealing presentation, garnish the pizza with additional coriander leaves and a sprinkle of red chili flakes. Serve it on a wooden pizza board or a colorful platter to showcase the vibrant toppings.
