One weekend, I made homemade pizzas with different flavors to celebrate my son-in-law’s birthday and treat some friends. This one has oregano in the dough and a delicious topping of whole sardines in olive oil and homemade roasted peppers. For garnish, I added some black olives and chopped hard-boiled egg.

Steps

60 minutes

1

In a bowl, combine the flour with the salt and oregano.
2

Add the water and mix by hand until you have a soft dough. Add the olive oil and work it into the dough until well combined.
3

Let the soft, elastic dough rise in a warm place, covered with a towel or plastic wrap.
4

Once the dough has doubled in size, spread it out on a baking sheet greased with olive oil.
5

Lightly sprinkle with paprika and bake until the crust is set and cooked through but not browned.
6

Meanwhile, in a skillet, sauté the chopped onion.
7

Add the tomato sauce and seasonings (pepper, oregano, paprika, and salt to taste). Let the sauce cook for about 10 minutes over low heat.
8

Spread the sauce over the pre-baked pizza crust. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top and arrange the drained sardines, strips of roasted pepper, olives, and chopped hard-boiled egg. Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.
