Homemade Pizza with Miam

Ingredients

Simple Pizza Dough

• 500g 00 flour (can use bread or plain flour instead)

• 7g yeast

• 5g salt

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 300-350ml warm water

There are endless topping ideas with Miam, and I'm a fan of using up leftovers in the fridge, but a few of my favourites are:

1. The Dinner-done One with chargrilled peppers, mushrooms, mozarella and spinach (pictured)

2. The Moreish One with cherry tomatoes , ricotta and kale

3. The Versatile One with potato and capers

4. The Extra One with mushrooms, chard and stilton

Method

1. Mix everything together with enough water to form a tacky dough.

2. Knead for 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic (if you have a food processor with a dough hook, mix for 5 minutes).

3. Lightly grease a bowl with oil and put the dough in. Cover and leave to double in size (about 1-2 hours).

4. When you're ready to make the pizzas, preheat the oven to 220C with a pizza stone (or oven tray) inside.

5. Divide the dough into two balls.

6. Option 1: Roll out the dough with a rolling pin and place on baking paper. Cover with your desired topping and cook for 10-15 minutes until golden brown.

7. Option 2: if you want to shape the dough to have a raised crust as pictured, I hand stretch the dough. (There's lots of good videos on Youtube to show how to do this better than I can explain in writing!)
