Ingredients
- 500 g flour - 3 ⅓ cups
- 14 g yeast - 1 tablespoon (instant dry yeast)
- 12 g salt - 2 teaspoons
- 45 g olive oil - 3 tablespoons (extra virgin)
- 300 ml water - 1 ¼ cups (at room temperature)
- 200 g tomato passata - 7 oz
- 400 g mozzarella - 14 oz
Instructions
THE PIZZA DOUGH
- To make quick pizza with instant yeast, first place the flour with the yeast in a bowl. Sift the two powders together so that the yeast is mixed evenly into the flour.
- Slowly add the water. Knead the ingredients with a fork. When the dough starts to compact, add the salt. Continue kneading for a few minutes by hand.
- It's not necessary to transfer the dough to a pastry board. Better to finish kneading in the bowl. The dough should be soft and not sticky. However, if it sticks to your hands, add a tablespoon of flour.
- Once you have a fairly firm dough, let it rest for 5 minutes in the bowl at room temperature.
- Meanwhile, grease a baking pan with two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. Spread it well over the entire surface of the pan and place the pizza dough on it.
- Lay the dough in the baking dish and gently spread it out, pressing it with your fingers so that it covers the whole surface.
THE BAKING
- Season the pizza with the tomato passata. With the help of a spoon, spread the tomato over the surface of the pizza. Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of fine salt. Be careful to leave an unseasoned space that will form the pizza crust. The "cornicione" prevents the tomato from leaking out of the pizza during cooking.
- Bake in a preheated ventilated oven at 250°C (482°F) for 10 minutes WITHOUT MOZZARELLA. Put the pizza pan in the lower rack of the oven. Then remove from oven, add sliced mozzarella and bake again for about 10 minutes. The quick homemade pizza is ready!
