Home-Made Italian-Style Pizza Recipe

Simple ingredients are required to make an Italian-style pizza sauce and base, although I'm quite sure that not all Italians will agree on what those ingredients are! Ingredients For the pizza dough 250 g (8 oz) of strong white flour, sieved 1 tsp salt 1 tsp dried yeast 125 ml (4 fl oz) water For the tomato sauce 500 g (1 lb) fresh tomatoes, peeled, deseeded and chopped 2-4 garlic cloves, crushed 3 tsp chopped fresh oregano ( or 1 tbsp dried oregano) 2 tsp olive oil For the topping 125 g (4 oz) grated Mozzarella cheese Toppings of your choice Instructions Prepare the sauce: Heat the olive oil in a pan. Add garlic and stir-fry on a medium-low heat for about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, cover and cook on a low heat for about an hour, stirring from time to time. Add in the oregano and cook uncovered on a low heat for about 15 minutes. You can use the sauce “as is” or you can pass it through a sieve to make it smooth. Season to taste. Prepare the base: Add the yeast and salt to the water and allow to stand for 10 minutes. Add the mixture to the flour and mix well to make a soft, smooth dough. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes then place in a greased bowl, cover and leave in a warm place for about an hour and a half. Place the dough on a floured surface, knock it back, then spread to a circle using your hands. Transfer to a baking tray. Spread the tomato sauce onto the base and spread evenly over the pizza base. Sprinkle on the cheese then add toppings of your choice. Drizzle on a little olive oil. Bake in an oven at 220°C for about 10 minutes until the cheese has melted and the base is cooked.
