Ingredients:

White Bread Flour – 500g
Extra Flour For Dusting
Salt – 1 Teaspoon
Dried Yeast – 1 (I Used 7g Sachet)
Semolina, For Dusting – 3-4 Tsp
Extra Virgin Olive Oil – 2 Tbsp + 1 tbsp
Garlic Grated – 2 Tsp
Shredded Parmesan Cheese – 1½ Cup
Shredded Mozzarella Cheese – 2½ Cup
Lukewarm Water – 335ml (I used water at 40°C)

For Toppings:

Slices Of Red Bell Pepper
Mushrooms, Sliced
Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Sliced
Red Onion, Sliced
Cherry Tomatoes, Sliced
Olives
Fresh Lettuce, Sliced
Pizza Sauce – ¾ Cup
Oregano
Pepper Powder & chili flakes (Optional)

Instructions:

Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl.
Add the yeast to the lukewarm water and stir well till it dissolves.
Now gradually add the yeast mixture to the flour and mix well.
Add 2 tbsp olive oil and mix well with a spoon/fork until you get a rough dough.
Transfer it onto a work surface and knead until it comes together or forms into a smooth and elastic dough ball.
This kneading process would take around 8-10 mins. You can add more dry flour if you thin it’s too sticky.
Divide the dough into four equal-sized balls and knead each piece for about 2 minutes.
Dust a tray with semolina and place the balls on it.
Cover the dough balls with damp kitchen towel and let it rest in a warm place to rise for about 2 hours or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 200ºC/400ºF/gas.
Dust a working surface with dry flour.
Using your hands or a rolling pin stretch the ball into a 10-12 inch circle or until you have a flattened disk of the desired size.
The edge should be slightly thicker. (Repeat the rolling process with the remaining dough balls)
Sprinkle some semolina or dry flour on a baking tray.
Place the pizza base on the floured baking tray and then use your hands to gently tug.
In a small bowl, mix garlic and olive oil and set aside.
Evenly spread the pizza sauce over the pizza base.
Now add sliced mushroom, bell pepper, onions, olives, cherry tomatoes, and sun-dried tomatoes.
Spread over the shredded cheese (mozzarella + parmesan)
Sprinkle some oregano on top.
Drizzle with olive oil.
Place the pizza in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes.(The baking time depends on how crispy you like your pizza.)
Drizzle with some desired sauce, lettuce, and more extra virgin olive oil.
