Instructions

To make pizza dough

  • Boil the water and keep aside. In a wide bowl combine oil, sugar and salt. Then add the boiled water and mix well till sugar dissolves.
  • Add milk, mix and then add yeast and mix well with a whisk. Set aside for 5 minutes stirring occasionally. The yeast should be completely dissolved.
  • Then add the flour and bring everything together to form a smooth pliable dough. No need to knead the dough.
  • Cover the dough with a damp cloth and keep in a warm place for 1½ - 2 hours. After 1½ -2 hours the dough would have raised.
  • Remove the dough to a flour-dusted surface and knead very lightly to push the air out the dough. Roll the dough under the palm of your hand until the top of the dough is smooth. Cover the dough and set aside.

To make the sauce

  • In a sauce pan add oil and butter. Once the butter melts, add the minced garlic. Saute for a minute. Then add the cream, salt and pepper.
  • Bring the mixture to boil and then simmer till the sauce becomes thick for about 3-5 minutes stirring occasionally.
  • Then add the cheese and cook for one more minute. Set aside.

To assemble & bake pizza

  • Preheat the oven to 220 degree Celsius. Grease a pizza pan or line with aluminium foil.
  • Roll the pizza dough using a rolling pin to a circle with 1 inch thickness. Fold the ends inside and press to get a small depth. Prick with a fork gently to make sure the base is cooked evenly.
  • Now spread the sauce and sprinkle the dried oregano. Then arrange the toppings over the base and add the grated cheese over the toppings.
  • Bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese melts and the base turns golden brown. Cut into slices with a pizza cutter or very sharp knife. Serve immediately.
