I used buy pizza base from shops and keep that in fridge. Whenever i need to make a quick dinner or want to fix some urgent hunger pangs, i spread tomato sauce, and i put whatever veggies or toppings i get on hand, sprinkle over lots of cheese and pop this in microwave for a min. Thats it i have a delicious cheesy pizza on hand in few mins..
Ingredients:
- All Purpose flour / Maida -2 cup + more as needed
- Dry Yeast - 1.5 tsp
- Sugar - 1 tblspn
- Salt to taste
- Warm Water-1 cup or as needed
- Olive oil-1 tblspn
Method:
Take flour in a bowl and mix salt with it.
Mix yeast,sugar with warm water and set it aside for 5 min or till it foam up.
Add the yeast water with the flour mixture and make a soft dough
Apply oil all over it generously and cover it..
Cover it with a damp cloth and Set this aside in a warm place till it doubles in size( for about 1 hour).
When it doubles,knock out the air and knead the dough for 3 min. Add extra flour if you need
Now divide the dough into equal portions.
Take one portion and roll it into pretty thick rounds. Prick it with a fork all over.
Now put this in a pan and put it on low heat, cover the pan with a lid. Cook for 2 mins. Now flip over and cook for a min or so.
Remove and let it cool down.
Once it is cooled, you can store this in fridge for a week.
TIPS FOR THE PERFECT PIZZA BASE:
1)The dough which you make should be very soft and slightly sticky before the first rise, once it is risen then add more more and knead to a soft dough. This ensures that the pizza base stays soft
2)You can cook the base in a low heat so it cooks right into the center.
3)You can store this in fridge for a week and freeze them for more than a month.
