Easy and Quick Pizza

Dough

1. In a large bowl, mix the warm water, olive oil and yeast. Stir well until the yeast is completely dissolved.
2. Add the flour and pinch of salt little by little, mixing with a spoon or with your hands until a homogeneous dough forms.
3. Sprinkle a little flour on the countertop so the dough does not stick.
4. Turn the dough onto the surface and knead it for 3-4 minutes with the palms of your hands, until it is soft, elastic and does not stick too much. If necessary, add a little more flour.
5. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean cloth and let it rest for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

Shaping and assembly

6. Once rested, divide the dough into two parts to make two large pizzas.
7. Flour the countertop and stretch each portion with a rolling pin or with your hands, in the shape of a circle or rectangle, as you prefer.
8. Place the stretched dough on a baking sheet or a pizza stone.
9. Brush the surface with a layer of tomato purée.
10. Add the grated cheese and the ingredients you prefer: ham, chorizo, pineapple, peppers, olives, etc.

Baking

11. Preheat the oven to 220-250 °C with top and bottom heat.
12. Bake the pizza in the center of the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges are golden.

    

13. If you like a more toasted base, move the tray to the lower part of the oven for 2-3 more minutes.
