Ingredients
- 270 g (1¾ cups) plain flour, plus extra, to dust
- 7 g sachet dried yeast
- olive oil, to grease
Makes 8 small pizza bases
Refrigeration time 4 hours
Instructions
Combine flour, yeast, 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp sugar in a bowl. Make a well in the centre and pour in 200 ml cold water. Gradually combine using a spoon until too thick to stir, then continue to combine mixture using your hands to make a smooth dough. Add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.
Form dough into a ball, rub all over with olive oil and place in a bowl that is big enough for the dough to expand. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
