Basic Pizza

I love homemade pizza with a crispy base and good toppings. Here is one very simple recipe that doesn't require a pizza oven or pizza stone.

Dough:

2,5 dl warm water

2 teaspoons salt

6-7 dl flour

1/2 bag yeast

oil

Quick tomato sauce:

1/2 tin tomatoes (drained)

tomato puree

garlic

salt

pepper

sugar

herbs

Toppings to taste: this time we had mushrooms, pepper, red onion, tomato, fresh mozzarella and some basic cheese + some rucola for garnish.

- Add salt to the warm water

- Add half of the flour and yeast

- Add rest of the flour and knead well

- Add a splash of oil

- Let the dough rise at least 1/2 hour in a warm place (until its size has doubled)

- Oil a baking tray and, using your hands, shape the dough until it's flat and evenly covers the baking tray.

- Add the tomato sauce and toppings

- Bake at 250°c for 15-20 minutes
