Something a little different for you today, a recipe. Enjoy.
Ingredients:
For the base:
300g Plain Flour
2 tsp Baking Powder
300g Natural Yoghurt
1/2 tsp Salt
For the sauce:
Tin of Tomato Passata
1 Tsp Mixed Herbs
2 Pinches of Caster Sugar
1 Garlic Clove
Toppings:
Whatever you fancy
[I have red onion, cherry tomatoes, spinach, mozarella, ricotta, cheddar and sometimes parma ham]
Method:
- First things first (i'm the realest), preheat the oven to gas mark 7/220 degrees and place trays in there to heat.
- To make the sauce, grate the garlic and add that, the passata, herbs and sugar into a saucepan at a medium heat. Let this simmer for 10 minutes until it is thick and take it off of the heat, season with a sprinkling of salt and pepper and let it cool.
- To make the dough, sieve the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl and combine. Make a well in the middle and pour the yoghurt in and stir with a fork. The mixture will soon form a dough. Turn this out onto a floured surface and knead to form a ball.
- Depending on how big you want the pizzas, divide the dough into equal pieces (the original recipe says 4, but for a fairly large pizza I split into 2). Roll these into circles, or whatever pizza shape you fancy.
- Remove the hot baking trays from the the oven and place your pizza bases on top and bake each for 3-4 minutes until they begin to rise then take them out (don't burn yourself, I know what you're like).
- Turn your pizza bases over and top with the sauce.
- Now it's time to get creative, go crazy with your chosen toppings and make something that won't just taste delicious but will look it too.
- Once you're done channeling your inner italian pizzeria chef, pop those bad boys back in the oven and bake for a further 5 minutes until the bases are crisp and the cheese is melted and you're happy as larry.
- Now you're ready to taste the best homemade pizza you've ever had. You're welcome.
Caio,
Chelsea.
