SATURDAY NIGHT = PIZzA NIGHT

Ok, ok, i know it's not the healthiest dinner in the world, but who cares!!!it's saturday night and pizza is the perfect choice. What i love most about this delicious pie is the fact it's super easy to make and you can top it with whatever you like (except pinapple, please###!!#). So, what are you waiting for??get cooking!!!

THE DOUGH:
500 g of plain flour
7 g of dried yeast (1 packet)
teaspoon of sugar
a big pinch of salt
3-4 dcl of warm water
glug of olive oil

Mix the dry ingredients in a big bowl and start adding water mixed with olive oil slowly with a wooden spoon. When a rough dough forms, turn it out on your work surface and kneed until it becomes smooth and elastic. Should be around 5 min ( you can use a machine, but i wouldn't bother). Cover the dough with a damp tea towel and let it proof in a warm place.

TOMATOE SAUCE:
I prefere using canned plum tomatoes that i blend with garlic, origano, and olive oil ( i use a hand mixer until smooth)

1 can of plum tomatoes (400g)
2 cloves of garlic (crushed)
2 table spoons of olive oil
origano
season with salt and pepper

After the dough has risen (around 30 min), divide it into two pieces ( this amount is enough for two oven baking trays). Flatten it down thin, spoon on the tomatoe sauce and your favourite toppings. Mine is salami, hot peppers, onions, gorgonzola and cheddar cheseese. Sprinkle with dried or fresh origano. Bake in a preheated oven ( top temperature, mine is 250° C) for 10- 12 min.

Now how simple is that???A gorgeous pizza made at home! Enjoy!!!
