Pizza Dough

Ingredients:

3 cups (400g) plain flour.
2 tsp dried yeast.
2 tsp salt.
1 cup warm water.
3 tbsp olive oil.

Method:

1. Place flour, yeast and salt in a bowl and mix.
2. Gradually add the water and olive oil and knead by hand for 7-10 minutes until the dough is smooth.
3.  Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with cling wrap. Set aside in a warm place to rise for 30 minutes or an hour until it doubles in volume.
4. Knead dough gently for a few minutes to remove some air.
5. Divide dough into two and roll out pizza bases. Sprinkle a little flour on the bench before rolling to prevent dough from sticking.

Tips:

For a delicious crunch base sprinkle polenta onto the kitchen bench instead of flour, when rolling out the pizza dough.
