Simple Pizza

Simple Pizza
Serves 4
This is a simple, quick pizza recipe that I love. The sauce isn't too tomatoey (if that's a word) or acidic. The toppings are a taste thing, but I love Chicken, and Prosciutto, the combination is awesome.

Sauce
  1. 3 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  2. 2 Red Onions (diced)
  3. 2 Garlic cloves (crushed)
  4. 2x 400g/13oz Cans Chopped Tomatoes
  5. 1 Teaspoon Red Wine Vinegar
  6. Pinch Sugar
Base
  1. 150g/8oz Self Raising Flour
  2. 1 Teaspoon Salt
  3. 150ml/¼ Pint Warm Water
Toppings (to taste)
  1. Mozzarella
  2. Cooked Chicken
  3. Prosciutto

Make the sauce

  3. Add the Tomatoes, Vinegar and sugar, season to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. Increase the heat and simmer until thick.
Make pizza base
  1. Sift flour and salt in to a large bowl.
  2. Gradually add the water and mix to form a soft dough, when it has bound together, mix the dough by hand in to a ball.
  3. Turn the dough out and knead until smooth and soft.
  4. Divide the dough in to 4 and, with your hands and a rolling pin, flatten as thinly as possible.
  5. The base does not have to be perfectly circular, but small enough to fit your baking tray.
  6. Place the pizza bases on a warmed baking tray, spoon over the sauce with the back of a spoon to the edges of the bases.
  7. Arrange your toppings as required and bake in a preheated oven for 10 minutes or until golden brown.
