Pizza
Finally a pizza that really tastes like pizza. The crust turned out pretty good. I used the bread in the bucket to make it. As you can see I could have stretched out the crust a bit more.
For the tomato sauce get out the frying pan. Brown one onion, garlic, chop up two tomatoes and throw them in. Juice a lemon ........or limes guess what throw it in. Now you need some honey or sugar to sweeten it up a little. Make sure you taste it. Add your favourite spices. I used rosemary, basil, parsley, salt and pepper, just sprinkle them. Let the sauce reduce.........simply cook until the juice evaporates ......but leave a little bit in the bottom.
Now for the cheese. I used mozzarella. I cut it in little squares (they say that if you cut the cheese in squares it's not so oily) or you can use shredded. You can use better cheese or a mixture of cheese but I wouldn't use cheddar.
First sprinkle corn flour on the greased pizza pan. Of course if you don't have corn meal........don't worry it still turns out. If you used the bread in the bucket for the crust, you have to remember to let the dough rest after you take it out of the fridge. Leave it for about 40 minutes it needs to warm up a little. You might need a bit of flour on it............it's really sticky. The flour will make it so that you can work with it.
Spread out the dough......Add the sauce, not too much you don't want a soggy pizza.
cut up your vegtables and add them, I used mushrooms, red peppers add whatever you like. Add the cheese........you can put it on first....no big deal.
Bake 400F.........about 20 minutes.
