Updated: Jun 8, 2023

You will need:

For the Dough:

300g Strong bread flour

7g dried yeast

200ml warm water

1tbsp Olive Oil

1 tsp salt


For the Sauce:

400g Chopped Tomato

1 tsp Oregano

0.5 tsp Garlic Granules


Toppings:

125g Mozzarella

70g Pepperoni (or your topping of choice)

Method:

1. Firstly in a bowl, mix together the flour and your salt.

2. Then add your yeast and stir.

3. Then add the warm water and olive oil and mix until it forms a dough. You want the water to be about body temperature.

4. On a floured surface start to knead the dough. You will need to knead the dough for a total of 10 minutes. Once kneaded the dough should be smooth and elastic. Of you can use a dough hook on a mixer for 10 minutes.

5. Leave your dough to rise in an oiled bowl that has been covered either with an oiled piece of clingfilm or a clean tea towel. You will need to leave your dough to rise for 45mins to an hour or until doubled in size in a warm place.

6. Then to make your sauce, in a saucepan over a low heat, add your chopped tomatoes, oregano and garlic granules and stir until well combined. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes until thickened.

7. Then to construct your pizza. On a floured surface knock the dough back for a couple of minutes.

8. Then divide your dough into 2 pieces. Roll each out until about 9 inches wide.

9. Then put on a floured baking tray. Spread the sauce over both pizza bases. Then top with your chosen toppings (I used pepperoni)

10. Then bake in a pre-heated oven at Gas Mark 8, 240C or 220C fan assisted for 10-15 mins.
