HOMEMADE PIZZA DOUGH

Makes 1 x 30cm pizza

In a large bowl, combine 130g plain flour with 2 x 7g packet of instant yeast, 11/2 tsp sugar and 3/4 tsp salt. Add 2 tbsp olive oil and 180ml warm water and use a wooden spoon to stir together very well. Gradually add another 130g flour and bring together into a cohesive dough, adding extra flour if needed. Knead for 3-4 minutes. The dough will still be slightly sticky but still manageable. Drizzle a separate bowl with olive oil and rub around to coat the insides of the bowl. Lightly dust your hands with flour. Form the dough into a ball and transfer to the oiled bowl, turning to coat in the oil. Cover the bowl tightly with cling film and place it in a warm place. Allow the dough to rise for 30 minutes or until doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 2200/2000C/gas mark 7 Once the dough has risen, transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead for 34 minutes until smooth. Use your hands or a rolling pin to work the dough into a 30cm circle. Transfer to a pizza pan or baking tray lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and brush over the entire surface of the pizza. Use a fork to poke holes all over the centre of the pizza to keep the dough from bubbling up in the oven. Add your desired toppings and bake for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown and bubbling.
