Pizza Dough & Pizza Sauce

If you are following me on Facebook, You must have seen my paneer pizza pic which I shared few months ago. I made that one using oven. It took me around 2-3 times to get the pizza perfectly as i expected. 

With crispy base at bottom , soft and fluffy inside, just like the one we get at pizza specialized restuarants. I always wonder and say to my hubby, how they got such a beautiful crispy texture with golden brown on top. But now, no way to wonder because I got to know how to make it by  myself :-) :-)

So today, I am going to share with you all the basic pizza dough and pizza sauce. If you have them ready, you could make around more than 10 different varities of pizza by changing the toppings. So let's see how to make pizza dough and pizza sauce.

Method.

In a mixing bowl, add all-purpose flour,yeast, sugar,salt. Mix them well. Then add oil,milk and water .

I used rapid rise yeast. so I added directly into flour. If you are using any other  yeast, dissolve sugar in luke warm water, add yeast. Rest for five minutes. 

Once you see the yeast is activated [ you will see froth on top ], add salt,oil, and luke warm milk into it. Mix well and add this mixture into flour and make a soft dough.

Make soft dough. Knead the dough for 5 minutes . It is very important to activate yeast so that your dough would rise well and also you will get soft and fluffy pizza.

After kneading the dough for 5 minutes, apply some oil on top of dough and cover it with cling wrap or damp cotton cloth. Rest it in warm place for 2-3 hours till you see the dough rise double in its volume.

Once it has risen, thats all. your pizza dough is ready.Just divide them and make into balls . Roll them into base of desired size and thickness.use to make your favorite pizza.

Pizza sauce

Ingredients

Method.

Heat pan on your stove, add 1 tbsp oil,tomato, capsicum, salt. Mix well. cover it with lid and cook for 4-5 minutes till tomato is soft and mushy.

Blend those cooked tomatoes into smooth paste.

Heat pan on stove, add 1 tbsp oil. Once hot add Garlic chopped finely. Cook till raw flavor goes and garlic become light brown.

I usually cook till garlic become crisp.

Then add prepared tomato puree into it.cook for 5 minutes in medium flame.

Then add pepper powder,red chilli flakes,sugar and italian herbs.

Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes. Switch off the flame. Your pizza sauce is ready. You may also use the same sauce in Pasta also.
