Pizza Dough

A very easy to make pizza dough at home. Make pizza or just enjoy a loaf. The dough gives a perfect crust for the pizza. Thin or pan it depends on the choice with this no fail recipe.

Ingredients for the dough:

• All purpose flour/plain flour (Maida) : 1 cup
• Dry Active Yeast : 3/4 tsp
• Milk (luke warm) : 1/2 cup
• Water (luke warm) : 1/2 cup (quantity will be adjusted as per the dough)
• Sugar : 1/2 tsp
• Salt : 1/2 tsp
• Olive oil/Veg oil : 2 tbsps

Method for preparing the base dough:
Activating Yeast

• Mix sugar and yeast in Luke warm milk. Cover and keep aside for 10-15 minutes depending on the room temperature. After sometime you will see that the mixture has become very frothy. This is the indication that your yeast is activated.

Kneading the dough :

• Sieve flour in a big bowl, mix salt to it. Add yeast to it and try to collect all the mixture together and knead a soft dough. At this stage you can add luke warm water as per the dough. The dough need to be very soft and sticky. 
• Once combined well add oil. 
• Put the dough on the work surface and knead for 5 minutes. (You can dust it with some flour while kneading)
• Keep the dough in well greased big bowl and cover with cling film or wet kitchen towel. Keep it in a warm place for 1-1/2 hr or unless the dough is doubled in size. (The best place which I find is oven with the light on).
• Once the dough is risen, its ready to roll.

Note : Below pictures here are just to give a rough idea. Quantity of the ingredients is totally different.
