Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a jug or large glass, add the sugar, yeast and roughly 100ml of the warm water. Stir gently with a fork and allow to sit for 5-10 minutes.
- 2
Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl combine the flour,salt and oil. Create a well in the middle and pour the yeast mixture into the flour. Using your hand incorporate all the ingredients together.
- 3
To bring all the ingredients together add more water until it forms a dough. Once it has come into a rough ball, tip it on to a clean surface.
- 4
At this point you need to knead the dough back and forth for approximately 10 minutes. One way to knead the dough is by using the heal of your hand to stretch the dough, whilst your other hand holds it firmly.
- 5
Once you have kneaded the dough should be able to press down on it with your finger and it should spring back. If so then ball up the dough and place back in the bowl and cover with a damp tea towel. Allow the dough to rise for at least 2 hours.
- 6
Once your dough has finished proving, knock the air out and bring it back to a ball shape. Divide the dough into 3/5 portions. Heat the oven to 215°C (fan).
- 7
Now you need to oil a baking tray/ sheet and start to spread the dough out. Start in the middle and work your way towards the edges keeping a circular shape. The more you spread the dough, the thinner your pizza will be.
- 8
Now it’s time to add your choice of toppings. The one seen in this picture is a Spicy Lamb Bolognese topped with grated mozzarella and served with peppery rocket.
- 9
Once your pizza is topped place in the oven for five minutes. After the first five minutes remove the tray/ sheet from under the pizza. This will ensure a crispy base.
- 10
After a further 6-8 minutes, your pizza should be cooked and ready to eat.

Top tip💡:Serve you pizza with a homemade red cabbage coleslaw and some wild rocket for freshness.

Basic Pizza Dough Basic Pizza Dough
I think that kneading flour into dough is the ultimate Slow Food. When I'm leisurely kneading dough on a day off while listening to music, all my daily stress just disappears. The dough will become more delicious too.The most important thing is to knead the dough thoroughly. Please knead it well for 20 to 30 minutes while listening to music. Just be careful not to knead your iPod into the dough! The other key is to rest the dough in the refrigerator. It will become very easy to flatten out. Recipe by Koba -
Pizza Dough Pizza Dough
source: https://sugarspunrun.com/wprm_print/13562Notes¹I've found that all-purpose flour yields a softer crust while bread flour gives a slightly crispier exterior. Please see the post for more information on all-purpose vs. bread flour in pizza dough.²Many commenters have reported using active dry yeast (use the same amount, 2 ¼ teaspoon) with success. Some people have proofed the yeast first with the ¾ cup warm water, which is what I would recommend, while others have just mixed it into the dough as instructed. Both have had success!³Ideally your water should be between 105-115F (40-46C). I usually just use warm tap water but do make sure that your water isn't too hot or it will kill your yeast!
