Ingredients:                                              Method:

For Dough: 1) 2 cups flour 2) 1/2 tsp salt 3) 3/4 cups water 4) 1/2 tsp of dry yeast 5) 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning (optional) For Toppings: 1) 1 thinly sliced tomato, (6 slices for each pizza) 2) 3 cups of cheese (1.5 cups per pizza) 3) 1/4 cup marinara sauce (for per pizza) 4) 12 basil leaves chopped divided between the two pizzas.

How to make dough: Before baking about 30 min to 1 hour , preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Now put baking stone on a rack in the lower-middle part of the oven before preheating Then in a small bowl, heat the water lightly that your finger can easily feel if the water is so hot that you can’t leave your finger in it, wait for it to cool down now add the yeast to the water and use a fork to blend it into the water. wait for few minutes. It’s all right if the yeast does not bubble but it should be entirely dissolved. Put the measured flour into a large bowl. Add the salt, dried Italian seasoning or herbs (if you have) and beat them finely. After that make a well in the center of the flour,  pour water yeast mixture in it. Use a wooden spoon to combine everything together. When it comes together into a ball, put it in extra flour in the bowl that hasn’t gotten worked in yet. Knead the dough until all the flour is included and the dough is smooth in touch for five minutes. The dough should still feel wet and slightly tacky. If it is sticking to your hands add in more flour about one or half tbsp at a time until it become smooth. Divide dough in two parts. How to shape the Dough: Take 12-inches wide two pieces of parchment paper. Take one piece of the dough in your hands, form it into a large roti. Lay the roti of dough on the parchment paper. use rolling pin, gently press the dough outward until it is about 1/4 of an inch thick or less. if you like a circular pie, then you have to trace a large circle on the back of the parchment. Repeat this with the second piece of dough. Topping & Baking the Dough: Put the sauce into the center of each pizza + use the back of a spoon to spread it out to the edges you can also use the brush. Then using the backside of a baking sheet, slide your pizza onto the baking stone in the oven. Bake it for 5 min, then rotate the pizza and bake for 3 min again, then sprinkle the cheese and other toppings over the top. Bake for another 2 to 3 min until the edges become golden and crispy. If you like your cheese browned slightly and broil for a minute. Take out your pizza from oven let it cool on a wire rack. Now you can slide the parchment paper out from under the pizza. Do this with the second pizza too. Let serve your delicious Pizza...!
