 Crispy based
and simply topped, this pizza will delight all children.
Ingredients (serves 4)
1 cup plain flour
1 teaspoon dried yeast
Pinch salt
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
5 tablespoons warm water
Extra flour for dusting rolling pin
140g tub pizza sauce
1 cup grated cheese (1/2 cheddar, 1/2 mozzarella)
Method
Combine the flour, yeast and salt in a bowl. Make a well in
the centre of the mixture. Add the oil and water and use a
wooden spoon to combine until a dough almost forms.
Turn the mixture out onto a lightly floured surface. Use the
palm of your hand to knead the dough for 2-3 minutes or
until smooth. Place into a lightly oiled bowl, cover with
plastic wrap and set aside for 1 hour, or until the dough
doubles in size.
Preheat oven to 240Ă?ÂșC. Use your fist to punch down the
dough. Knead until smooth. Using a lightly floured rolling
pin, roll the dough out until big enough to line a lightly
greased 27cm pizza tray.
Spread pizza sauce over pizza, then sprinkle with cheese.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is golden and the
base is crispy.
