Then they are topped with an extra-potent curry sauce made from a fiery spice mix.

After a few hours of simmering, the concoction is spread on dough and cooked in a pizza oven.

The sustainable eatery, in London’s Canary Wharf, serves the pizza with mint yoghurt and coriander — and an £11 price tag.

Dozens of plucky diners have raved about it online.

One posted: “This dish is amazing, well done, full of flavour.”

But another says the unconventional pizza-style bread has the potential to cause a “war with Italy”.

A third added: “This is wrong. But it is one way to get the French to eat a curry.”

Roe is run by the chefs behind posh restaurant Fallow, Piccadilly, whose sister venue Fowl serves up a £22 chicken pie with the unlucky cluckers’ head sticking out the top.

Roe chef and owner Will Murray said: “We’ve never been afraid to put something on the menu if we truly believe it’s great.”
