METHOD
- Add all the ingredients for the tomato sauce to a pot, breaking up the tomatoes with a spoon.
- Reduce by 1/3, season to taste.
- You can choose to make the dough or use pitta breads or a pre-bought base/loaf as the base for the pizza.
- If you choose to make the dough: Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Add the yeast, oil, and water to a mixing bowl.
- Stir to dissolve the yeast. Don’t worry if the oil is sitting on top of the liquid.
- Add the flour, semolina, and salt.
- Turn on the mixer, or knead by hand, until the dough is smooth, and all the ingredients are incorporated.
- Continue to knead for 7-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough on a baking tray and stretch out until about 1cm thick.
- Place in a warm place to prove until doubled in size.
- Use your fingers to make dimples, again, trying to keep in as much air as possible.
- Cover with the tomato sauce.
- Sprinkle over the basil, the Nurishh Camembert Flavour alternative to cheese pieces and the Nurishh Cheddar Flavour grated.
- Bake at 200°C for 20-25 mins until golden brown.
- Check the base to ensure it is cooked and crispy.
