I

n a small bowl, combine the sugar, yeast, and warm water. Let it sit until it foams, 5 to 10 minutes.
Mix the flour and salt together in a big bowl. Stir in the olive oil and yeast mixture.
The dough should be smooth and elastic after 5 to 7 minutes of kneading on a floured surface.
Put the dough in a basin that has been lightly greased, cover it with a fresh towel, and let it rise for an hour, or until it has doubled in size.

  • Add the tomato sauce, oregano, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper to a small saucepan over medium heat.
  • After 5 to 10 minutes of simmering, let it cool.

  • On a floured surface, punch down the dough and roll it out into a 12-inch circle.
  • To make handling the dough easier, move it to a piece of parchment paper.
  • Leaving a thin border around the borders, evenly distribute the prepared sauce over the dough.
  • Over the sauce, scatter the mozzarella cheese shreds.
  • Add the toppings of your choice (vegetables, pepperoni, etc.).
