No Fuss Pizza Crust
- Combine flour, salt, sugar and yeast in a large bowl. Mix in oil and warm water until a smooth dough is formed
- In a large frying pan on a high heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic, oregano and onion. Cook until the onion becomes translucent
- Add passata, tomato puree, salt and pepper to the pan. Keep at a high heat and stir for 5 minutes. Add the basil leaves, reduce to a low heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Leave to one side
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 5-8 minutes. Return to the dough to the bowl and cover with a tea towel. Place the bowl in a warm place and let it prove for 45 minutes (the dough should double in size)
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Spread the dough out onto a pizza tray
- Spread the tomato sauce on the dough and add your choice of toppings
- Bake for 20-25 mins until the cheese begins to bubble
