I have never been a big fan of Pizza (strange considering I am half Italian!) but my children love it so we had an Italian themed evening with home made pizza to start and pasta for our main course.
Ingredients:
(For the dough)
Strong, plain flour 500g
Fine sea salt 1 tsp
Dried yeast 7g sachet
Sugar a pinch
Warm water 250ml
Fine sea salt 1 tsp
Dried yeast 7g sachet
Sugar a pinch
Warm water 250ml
Method:
Tip the flour and salt into a large mixing bowl. Pour in the dried yeast, sugar and as much of the water as you need to make a smooth, slightly sticky dough. Tip out on to a floured board and knead until it is no longer sticky.
Place in a floured bowl covered with a clean, damp tea towel and leave in a warm place for an hour or until the dough has risen to twice its size.
Turn the dough out and press it down with your fist. It is now ready to roll out and cover with your toppings. I used pepperoni, chorizo, grated cheese, tomato puree, chilli, garlic and herbs.
