It is weekend it is pizza time. We love pizza! It is easy and good and healthy if you are making it at home. The dough recipe is from Gennaro Contaldo.
Dough ingredients:
- 500 g flour
- 325 ml war water
- 7 g dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
You will need flour when you will make it.
Pizza ingredients:
- 1 egg
- Homemade tomato sauce
- Parmesan cheese
- Bell peppers
- Dry spinach
Directions:
Place the warm water in a bowl. Sprinkle yeast over the warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until the yeast is dissolved.
In a large bowl place the flour and the salt and mix them. Add the water on top of the flour and start mixing until you have the dough.
Knead the pizza dough about 7-10 minutes.
The dough should be a little sticky, or tacky to the touch. If it’s too wet, sprinkle in a little more flour. Let it rise in the bowl for 1 hour. Cover the bowl with a towel or plastic wrap.
After the pizza has risen you can start making the pizza. Divide the dough in portions depending on your tray.
Preheat the oven at 245°C or 475°F.
Form round balls of dough. Place each in its own bowl, cover with plastic and let sit for 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours).
Flatten dough ball, and stretch out into a round: Working one ball of dough at a time, take one ball of dough and flatten it with your hands on a lightly floured work surface. Starting at the center and working outwards, use your fingertips to press the dough to 1/2-inch thick. Turn and stretch the dough until it will not stretch further.
Let the dough relax 5 minutes and then continue to stretch it until it reaches the desired diameter – 10 to 12 inches.
Spoon on the tomato sauce, sprinkle with cheese, and place your desired toppings on the pizza. I made one with egg for the first time. Was great!
Bake pizza in the 475°F (245°C) oven, one at a time, until the crust is browned and the cheese is golden, about 10-15 minutes.
Enjoy!
Looks yummy🤤🤤
Thank you
I think I am gonNa try this!!
Have a good day
Pizza time, happy time eheh it’s nice to cook and be together 🙂 have a great weekend, all the best! PedroL
Thank you. Have a great weekend!
You’re welcome 🙂 PedroL
I am Italian, you know, so I can’t avoid a little critic everytime i see a recipe of a famous italian dish published by anyone without italian roots…(by the way do you have italian origin). The recipe looks very good but I would recommend you just one little thing: prepare the pizza dough the day before and let it rest overnight in a warm place. It will help making it more fragrant and will make digestion a lot easier. Your plalate will enjoy more and your stomach will be happier. 🙂
Thank you for your advice. I will definitely do that. Can I do that for focaccia?
Yes, you can do it for focaccia also. You can see my recipe on my blog in the “cooking exercise” category
Thank you
Excellent! 😋🌿🍕
Looks great. Did you crack the raw egg onto the pizza and cooked it in the oven for 15 minutes or did you add the already cooked egg at the end?
I cracked the egg when I put the pizza in the oven for 15 minutes.
Looks seriously scrumptious 🙂
Thank you
Looks very tasty!
Thank you
I love making pizza! Rather different recipe than that but I’ve gotten it so it tastes like the local pizzeria makes it. Your recipe looks nice.
Thank you
This is a great idea for a traveling business person, who needs a hearty meal before business meetings.
Hello ! Wow, this looks so yummy ! Thanks for sharing, have a good one ♡
Thank you
Excellent! I’m going to try it 😋
Thank you
I can buy cheap basic pizza, so I get them and add mu pwn extra toppings, and for ages I have been adding an egg to it. Delicious.
May I ask, you wrote form the round balls of dough, so how many did you form? You have one egg so just one dough went with the egg?
I made 4. Each was with different topping.
Thanks!
You are welcome
Sooooo good! I love, love, LOVE an egg sunny side up on my pizza!

I love an egg on a pizza – my mouth’s watering at the thought of a Pizza Express Fiorentina right now! My family just think eggs are the weirdest thing on one!
We love pizza but I never think of it for breakfast.
Yum!!
Looks so yummy!
Thank you
Thank you for this great one. I love it.
You are welcome.
Absolutely love it. Will try it out this weekend.

I’ve seen some people add sugar to the dough, for the yeast to work it, is it fine if we don’t add it?
It is.
Holy cow I need to try this, looks delicious.
