My First Pizza



I am a pizza lover. My hubby doesnt like it much. But still i like it so wanted to make it at home. Long time wish came true yesterday. I made my own pizza. I dint have cheese though. But nothing can stop me. Mission started so noway i can think of stepping back. So i made a veggie pizza without cheese. Healthy one right he he....


INGREDIENTS


All Purpose Flour - 2cups

Dry Yeast -2grams

Sugar-1tsp

Salt-2tsp

Olive Oil-2tsp
Pizza Sauce

Veggies for topping

Mozzarella Cheese (preferably)-1cup or even more if u like 'em


METHOD


1)In a bowl take some "luke warm" water and add dry yeast, 1tsp sugar and salt and mix it well. i have highlighted luke warm bcoz dry yeast will die in hot water. Close it and set it aside for 10 mins.

2)Take the all purpose flour in a mixing bowl add 1tsp salt and 2tsp olive oil. Mix it well.

3)Add the frothy yeast mix to it and make a dough. You can add some water if desired.

4)The dough shud be in our roti dough consistency. apply some oil on top of it and set it aside for 1hr.

5)After 1hr the dough would have become double in volume now punch the dough nicely to take any air molecules from it and set it aside agian for another 30mns

6)Now the dough is ready for pizza making

7)On the baking tray set a aluminum foil paper.Spray some nonstick spray or u can even apply some oil. roll the pizza in the shape u want it to be. no hard and fast rule it shud round right.

8)Apply some pizza sauce over it. I made tomato/pepper/onion topping. You can try diffferent toppings with or without cheese

9)Preheat oven at 450 degree and bake ur favourite pizza.

10)When the colour of the cheese at the sides changes to brown its done. Usually it takes 10 to 15 mns. There you are done with your excellent pizza.


PS: I like to add chaat masala and corn peppers on top for that spicy taste.. YUM YUM..... cant resist.......... Foodie lovers try to make your own pizza and relish the taste...
