Homemade Pizza

Pizza was not meant to be easy to make, at least this recipe proved to be so. It's not as though it's particularly hard, it's just fiddly and messy and time consuming. The waiting of the dough to rise is the most painful part really. And sometimes it doesn't turn out because maybe the temperature in the air wasn't right that day, or you didn't knead it long enough. And some people are particular about the thickness of the dough. I prefer mine thicker, whereas my husband likes it thin....so we try to do an in-between which doesn't always work either. I think that it just means I have to practice more. Also, this recipe provided instructions to make our own pizza sauce (normally we would just smear on a tub of tomato paste) so that also added to the preparing/cooking time.

Once you get the dough out of the way though it's plain sailing. Choose the ingredients you want as the topping, chop it up and chuck it on. You can make it as healthy or unhealthy as you like.
