My Sister gave me this recipe to make for my kids, she told me it taste like a Mcdonalds cheeseburger and they will love it, especially my husband. I never did anything with it for months because I thought my kids don’t like or eat Mcdonalds! I finely made it and it was a huge hit. Great for kid parties!
Pizza base
Makes two 30cm pizza bases, it takes about 2 hours. If you don’t have time , use the quick pizza dough recipe.
- 320ml warm water (40°C)
- 2 ¼ tsp yeast
- 440g plain flour (organic is best)
- 1 tbs sugar (raw is best)
- 2 tbs olive oil
- Pinch salt.
- Tomato Napoli sauce, or pizza sauce
Combine the yeast, sugar, olive oil and warm water together and set aside. In a large mixing bowl combine the salt and flour, make a well in the centre. Pour the yeast mixture in the middle and stir until combined.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured bench and with lightly floured hands, knead the dough for 4 -5 minutes. Poke it, if it slowly bounces back, your dough is ready, if not keep kneading until it bounces. Set aside in an oiled bowl to rise, doubling in size (approx. 60 minutes) cover the bowl with a damp (clean) tea towel.
Tip out your dough onto a lightly floured bench and give it a quick 20 second knead then split the dough in half. Give it a quick knead to form two individual balls, cover with your lightly damp tea towel for 30 minutes.
On a lightly floured bench use your fingers or a rolling pin to gently flatten the dough into your desired shape. Place on your pizza tray and stretch to flatten to fit the tray, keeping the crust a little bit thicker than the middle. Brush the crust (about an inch) with olive oil.
Now your base is ready for your tomato Napoli sauce! Once sauce is applied place base in oven at 200°C for 10 minutes, or until the crust is lightly browned.
Now it’s ready for you toppings!!
