Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Stir and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy. Add the flour and salt, then mix until a dough forms. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for 1 hour.

  2. Knead the dough thoroughly until smooth. Shape it into a round ball, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rest for 15 minutes.

  3. Roll out the dough into a round shape using a rolling pin. Place mozzarella cheese in four sections across the dough. Fold and seal the edges to form a stuffed crust. Poke a hole in the center using a slotted spoon. Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza and sprinkle more mozzarella cheese as desired.

  4. Preheat the oven to 230°C (450°F). Bake for 12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly with a golden crust. Serve hot and enjoy!
