More homemade Pizza for you.....Sumod TomIndian Food Freak My Favorite Pizza Recipe When you cook its better you make your own dough and sauce, rather than buying the base and sauce. Pizza Dough Flour-3 Cups Honey-2 Table spoon Olive oil- 2 Table spoon Salt-1 teaspoon Yeast-1 Teaspoon (let to rise in lukewarm water, with 1 teaspoon sugar) Warm water or warm Milk (as required to make smooth dough) Mix all the above to make a smooth soft dough, and knead well to at least 10 Minutes Cover with a wet cloth and set aside to rise for 2 Hours. After two hours knead again the risen dough for few minutes and set aside covered in wet cloth to rise again. (The above proportion makes a large and a small pizza) Pizza Sauce Blanched Tomatoes-3 medium Tomato Puree-2 Small Packets Shallots-5 Nos Onion-1 No. Butter-2 Tablespoon Oregano (dried)-1 teaspoon Thyme (dried)-1/2 Teaspoon Fresh Basil-1 Handful (I grow them at home) Pepper-to your taste Red dried Chili flakes-to your taste Salt to taste Sugar-1 tablespoon Heat the butter in a pan, add minced garlic, sauté and when done, add minced shallots and onion, sauté well. When done add pepper and the dried leaves (Oregano and thyme), sauté well. Add in minced blanched tomato, and sauté till it is soft and cooked, followed by tomatoes puree, sauté well for few minutes. Add ½ cup of boiling water and let it reduce in low flame for 5 minutes. When thickened and done add minced fresh basil leaves and the sugar, mix well and set aside to cool. Pizza Topping This is purely your own world. I used Mozzarella and cheddar cheese. Best are mushrooms, pepperoni, mortadella, barbequed meat, prawns, bell peppers of various colors etc:- all is yours choice. Final Setting. Knead the dough again and pat the dough to the desired shape of your baking tray. Final finishing and spreading can be done with hand (it shouldnt be too thick). Poke the spread base with a fork, add a table spoon of olive oil and spread all over the base. Add a layer of the prepared pizza sauce, followed by thin layer of Mozzarella cheese or any combination with mozzarella and other cheese. Add layers of the other toppings, mushrooms, meat, mince onions, cubed bell pepper etc:- followed by a thicker layer of mozzarella cheese to fully cover the topping. Add sliced olives on top. Bake in a pre heated oven at 180-200 C for 25-35 minutes. Yummy pizza aroma will be all round your home, njoy it.
