Ingredients
Lets Cook
Prepare the pizza dough
In a small bowl, whisk together warm water and yeast, and set aside. Add 1/4 teaspoon of sugar to activate the yeast.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Stir well, then add the water/yeast mixture and the olive oil.
Stir until a ball forms.
Use your hands to knead the dough for several minutes. Add extra flour if needed.
Form the dough into a loose ball, drizzle a little olive oil on top, and cover the bowl with a clean dish towel.
Let the dough rise
Leave the dough for 2 hours at room temperature to rise
When the first rise is finished, punch down the dough and cut the ball in half. Roll each piece of dough into a new ball, place them in separate bowls, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
Prepare the sauce and topings
In a bowl mix the canned tomatoes, salt and oreganum.
Chop the mushrooms finely.
Chop the green pepper finely.
Cut the ham into fine pieces.
Pack the pizza
Sprinkle a few tablespoons of whole wheat flour on a clean counter top, then flatten one of the dough balls onto it. Use a rolling pin to gently roll the dough into a circle or an oval. Use your fingers to shape the edges into a slight crust.
Place the dough on a baking sheet.
Brush 2 teaspoons of olive oil onto the surface of the dough.
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the dough.
Sprinkle the mushrooms, green pepper and ham over the dough.
Sprinkle over the grated Parmesan cheese over.
Bake the pizza
Bake the pizza for 10-12 minutes in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius.
