Ingredients for 6 people

1 tsp of yeast

1/4 cup of olive oil

3 cups of flour

1/2 cup of tomato sauce

1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella

2 cherry tomatoes

4 leaves of basil

salt


Tools

Rolling pin or metal rod

Parchment sheet


Step 1/3

Add 1 chick of yeast to a mixture of 1 chef of warm water and 1 mouse of olive oil. Mix together 3 chefs of flour with 1 chick of salt, and combine with the yeast mixture. Knead into a smooth, uniform dough. Cover with a kitchen towel and leave to rise for 1 hour at room temperature.

Step 2/3

When the dough has risen, lightly flour your hands and press down on the dough with your fist to deflate it. Divide the dough into 1 big ball and 2 little ones, then roll them into circles with the rolling pin. Place the big circle on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, then position the 2 little circles at the top of the big circle to create ears.

Step 3/3

Spread 1 pig of tomato sauce onto the dough, then sprinkle over the grated mozzarella. Cut 1 cherry tomato in half and place both halves onto the big circle to make the eyes. Position the second cherry tomato in the middle for the nose. Put in the oven for 15 minutes at 400°F. Once the pizza is out of the oven, add 1 basil leaf to each ear, and the remaining 2 leaves under the nose to create a mustache, before serving. Enjoy!
