Sunday Night Pizza


Pizza is reaily fun to make. Especially the toppings, you can be as creative as you want.

I would usually make 2 big pizzas for dinner. One Hawaiian and the other is up to the girls creativity. We had some button mushrooms added to the Hawaiian. Lots of mozzarella and parmesan cheese melted on the top of the pizza...it was delicious.

The second pizza was with bacon and tomato. We decided to put a layer of cheese on the base of the pizza and top up with button mushrooms, bacon and cherry tomato....it was also great.

The base is like making bread. To make 2 big base, just sift 225grams of bread flour, 15oml of water, 2 tablespoon olive oil and 7gram of yeast. Add all the ingredients together and knead for about 30 minutes. Knead into a ball and leave to rest for an hour cover with a piece of cloth. It is best to place in a warm place, it will rise faster.

When it doubles in size, punch it down and divide into 2 portion for 2 pans.

Roll and shape into pan size and leave for another half an hour or so. When oven is 200 degrees, add toppings and bake in the oven for about 20 minutes till the cheese is slightly brown.

Nothing beats your own pizza. You can be generous over your toppings!
