Wash tomatoes well and finely cut 4 tomatoes and make puree of other 4 ..

Heat a non stick sauce pan ,add butter and olive oil

Add finely finely chopped garlic into that and saute in medium heat for few seconds ..

Then add finely chopped onion and chilli flakes ..Saute till translucent ..

If u have fresh oregano ,then add this or add chopped tomatoes and puree along with salt ,water and  sugar

Then add dry leaves and stir well and close the pan and cook for minimum 20 minutes stirring occasionally ..With a wooden spoon mix the tomatoes well ..

After 20 minutes taste the sauce and season if needed ..

Cook the sauce till the medium thick consistency (with in this time raw smell of the tomatoes will be  gone)..not too thin nor too thick …Finally sprinkle crushed pepper and oregano ..

So the yummy home made pizza sauce is ready

 

Method of making Pizza ..

 

Take a bowl and add 1/4 cup of luke warm water ..Into this add yeast and sugar and mix well .. Keep aside for 10 minutes ..

Then add this yeast sugar mix to 350 ml of water and stir well ..

Now take wide bowl and add all purpose flour and salt ..Mix well ..

Make a well in the centre of the flour and pour this yeast water and slowly knead ..

After 5 minutes ..add milk and olive oil .. and knead for 10 minutes  and make a very soft dough ..

 

Clean ur kitchen top and dust some flour .. Knead the dough again with some flour till u get a smooth dough which is not  sticking  to ur hand ..

Now let this dough rest for proofing..atleast  for 1 hour ..

After 1 hour take the dough and divide into 5-6 equal balls and proof again for another 30 minutes ..

Preheat the oven for 250 degree celsius

 

 

Take one dough and dust some flour and spread evenly  with hand into circle  or what ever shape u want in a pizza pan ..

If u want thin crust try to spread very evenly thin layer and then with the help of a fork make holes in pizza base ..

Then brush some olive oil all over the base .. After that spread 1 to 2 tbsp of pizza sauce, sprinkle some crushed chilli  and ur choice of vegetables ..In the top spread some cheese ..Then sprinkle some more olive oil ..

Here i used saluted capsicums ,potatoes ,tomatoes and caramelised Onion ..

Bake the pizza in the oven for 10 minutes or until the crust is golden color ..

So the yummy pizza is ready to serve … 🙂

Try this and let me know ur experience friends

NOTE:

U can preserve the dough in the fridge and make pizza after wards .. for that cover each dough  in a cling wrap and then put in a zip lock bag and keep in the fridge for 1 day and for more than one day in the freezer .. Remove from the fridge 1 hour b4 and allow the dough to come back to room temperature and then make pizza ..

 

Love

🙂
