We three were eating like as if we have not eaten pizza for ages. The best part was, one of my friend was not at all allowing me to take the pictures also. I have hardly taken 4 to 5 pictures only. The moment I finished taking pics, she was the first one to jump on it and by seeing her I din't even bother to look at the pics and started eating... Some how the pizza also had come out very very tasty and awesome looking... Making pizza at home is so easy if you have pizza sauce ready and I always make pizza sauce and keep it. So when ever we feel like eating then I just make it. Making pizza at home is healthier then store bought... I want to suggest everyone start baking pizza at home and you'll really enjoy..

Pizza Sauce ( recipe follows)

10 black olives (cut into circles)

1/2cup baby corn, 1 large tomato, 1 medium onion, (thinly sliced)

12 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, (grated).

Ingredients For The Pizza Sauce

Make For 2 Large Pizza

2 tsp oil 

6 large tomato's

3tbsp tomato puree

1tbsp chopped ginger and garlic

3/4 tsp Italian seasoning

3/4 tsp dried oregano 

1 1/2 tsp salt or to taste

1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper.

Directions For The Pizza Base

Pour warm water and milk into a small bowl. Add sugar, and sprinkle in yeast. Using a fork, stir the mixture until yeast is dissolved and water has turned a tan color. Let yeast stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, add flour and salt. Then add yeast mixture and oil. Mix until the dough comes together, adding more flour as needed until dough is smooth, not tacky, when squeezed. Transfer to clean surface; knead for 5 to 10 minutes.

Brush the inside of a medium bowl with oil, and place the dough in the bowl, smooth side up. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, and place in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1hour. Remove plastic wrap, and press your fist into the center of the dough to punch it down. Fold the dough back onto itself four or five times. Turn dough over, folded-side down, cover with plastic wrap, and return to the warm spot to rise again until the dough has doubled in size, about 30 minutes.

Punch down the dough, and transfer to a clean surface. Knead the dough four or five turns into a ball. Lightly flour a clean surface, place the dough pat into a flattened circle, cover lightly with plastic wrap, and let rest 5 minutes. Using your fingers, begin to flatten and push the dough evenly out from the center until it measures about 7 to 8 inches in diameter. Do not press the dough all the way to the edges. Leave a slightly raised border, about a half-inch wide, around entire circumference of pizza dough.

In a mean time pre-heat the oven for 20 minutes at 250c. 

Arrange the pizza dough into a circle on top of the baking flat tray. Leaving the raised edge uncovered, pour 8 to 9 tsp of the pizza sauce onto the dough. Using the back of a tablespoon, evenly spread the sauce leaving a half-inch border of dough uncovered. Arrange half of the mozzarella slices on top of the sauce and arrange all the veggie's on top, then cover with left over mozzarella slices.

Bake until the crust is golden brown and crisp on the edges and the bottom, 7 to 8 minutes, turning the pizza halfway through baking. Using a pizza wheel, slice the pizza into eight pieces, and serve immediately.

Directions For The Pizza Sauce

Pour oil into a large skillet, and place over medium heat. Using your hands, squeeze tomatoes to crush them. Add to the warm oil, along with the remaining ingredients. Cook over medium-low heat, breaking up tomatoes with a wooden spoon, until the sauce is thick, 40 to 50 minutes. Allow it to cool and grind it to a smooth paste...

Sauce is ready to use, after using the sauce to pizza you can store the remaining sauce in a fridge for the next time use..

Here goes the recipe bake and enjoy :)

 

 

Ingredients For The Pizza Base
Makes 1 Large Pizza Base
1/2 cup warm water (100 degrees to 110 degrees)
3tbsp warm milk
1/4 tsp sugar
1+1/8 tsp active dry yeast
1+1/2cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 tsp salt
2tbsp oil, plus more for bowl.

 

 

For The Topping
Pizza Sauce ( recipe follows)
3 button mushroom, 1 large tomato, 1 medium onion, 1 small capsicum (thinly sliced)
12 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced.

 

 

Ingredients For The Tomato Sauce
Make For 2 Large Pizza
2 tsp oil
6 large tomato's
3tbsp tomato puree
3/4 tsp Italian seasoning
3/4 tsp dried oregano
1 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper.

Remove plastic wrap, and press your fist into the center of the dough to punch it down. Fold the dough back onto itself four or five times. Turn dough over, folded-side down, cover with plastic wrap, and return to the warm spot to rise again until the dough has doubled in size, about 30 minutes.

Leave a slightly raised border, about a half-inch wide, around entire circumference of pizza dough.

 

In a mean time pre-heat the oven for 20 minutes at 250c.
Lift the dough off the surface, and center it on top of your fists. Hold your fists about 1 to 2 inches apart. Begin to rotate and stretch the dough, moving your fists until they are 6 to 8 inches apart and the dough is several inches larger. Then place your fists under the inside of the outer edge, and continue to stretch the dough a little at a time until it reaches about 12 inches in diameter. The dough will drape down over your forearms. At this stage, it is important to keep your fists along the inside of the outer edge and watch that the dough does not get too thin or tear in the center. At the same time, make sure to maintain the slightly raised border on the edges. The dough is surprisingly resilient and will not tear if this step is done carefully and slowly.

 

Arrange the pizza dough into a circle on top of the baking flat tray. Leaving the raised edge uncovered, pour 8 to 9 tsp of the pizza sauce onto the dough. Using the back of a tablespoon, evenly spread the sauce leaving a half-inch border of dough uncovered. Arrange half of the mozzarella slices on top of the sauce and arrange all the veggie's on top, then cover with left over mozzarella slices.

Pull-Apart Bread With Spicy Herbs And Pizza Sauce!!!

Pull-Apart Bread. Last week i was seeing this bread post in almost every blog, and i was very tempted to bake this bread. When ever i bake i have problem with yeast and which ever brand i buy. Actually i knew that gloripan yeast is good, i had read lot's of review about gloripan yeast, but i was not sure where do we get it. Then i started searching on net to buy Gloripan yeast near by my house, i got one in mission road which is pretty far from my house, and i asked my hubby should i go, as always he said will go on weekends and it is very sunny outside. Even i thought the same and kept quite for some time but my heart din't agree with me, without telling him i just took my bike and went searching the address. GUESS WHAT!!! I got the address and i rush to shop and bought the yeast.. After coming back home i started preparing to bake fast fast and finely my bread came out so yummy and perfect.. He also love it.

I should thank to Divya Kudua from EasyCooking for her very useful post and step by step pictures which made my work easy. I have followed her same steps but different ingredient's, This was my first attempt to bake bread a perfect bread and i'm very happy with the way bread was looking and tasting.. Thanks everybody for baking so many different types of Pull-Apart Bread and making me to start baking.. I'm sending this recipe to We Knead To Bake#1 event hosted by Aparna of My Diverse Kitchen.

Ingredients.

For the dough

1/2cup Warm milk

1/2tsp Sugar

1tsp Active dry yeast(I used Gloripan Yeast)

1 1/2cup All purpose flour

1/2tsp Salt

1tbsp Butter(soft at room temperature)

1tsp Ginger Garlic Paste

2tbsp Milk + a couple of tbsp to brush over the bread

For the filling

2tsp Melted butter 

1tbsp Mixed Italian herbs

1/2tsp Chilli flakes

2tbsp Grated Mozzarella cheese

1tbsp Pizza Sauce

1/2tsp Black Sesame Seeds.

Baking Method

In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar and the yeast in the 1/2 cup of warm milk. Keep aside for about 5 minutes till the yeast mixture bubbles up.

Put flour, salt, softened butter, and ginger garlic paste in a large bowl mix.
Then add the yeast mixture and the 2tbsp of milk and knead till you have a soft, smooth and elastic/ pliable dough which is not sticky. Add a little extra flour if your dough is sticking, but only just as much as is necessary.

Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a well-oiled bowl, turning the dough to coat it completely with oil. Cover and let it rise for about 1 1/2 hours or until almost double in volume.

Dust your work surface lightly with flour. Deflate the dough, shape it into a square and roll the dough out into a larger square that is about 12’ by 12”. Brush the surface of the square with the melted butter. Evenly sprinkle the herbs, chilli flakes, pizza sauce and then the grated cheese.

Use a rolling pin to very lightly press the topping into the dough to ensure the topping doesn’t fall off when you are stacking the strips.Using a pizza cutter, slice the dough from top to bottom into 6 long and even strips. Lay each strip on top of the next, with the topping facing upwards, until you have a stack of the strips.

Using a sharp knife, cut straight down through the stack dividing it into 6 equal pieces (6 square stacks).

Grease and lightly flour a loaf tin. Layer the square slices, cut sides down into the loaf tin.

Cover the loaf tin dough with a towel and allow the dough to rise for an hour. Lightly brush some milk over the top of the loaf and sprinkle the black sesame seeds from top.

Bake the dough at 180C (350F) for about 30 to 40 minutes until it is done and the top is golden brown.

Pull-Apart Bread is ready. Serve Warm.
