Instructions:
-
Activate the Yeast:
In a small bowl, combine the instant yeast with a little warm water and the granulated sugar. Allow it to sit for a few minutes until it becomes frothy. This indicates that the yeast is active and ready for use. -
Prepare the Dough:
In a large mixing bowl, add the all-purpose flour, salt, and cooking oil. Gradually pour in the yeast mixture, adding it bit by bit, and knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. This process can take about 5-10 minutes. -
Let the Dough Rise:
Cover the dough with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and leave it in a warm place for 30 to 60 minutes. The dough should double in size as it rises. -
Prepare the Toppings:
While the dough is rising, heat a pan over medium heat and sauté the onion until fragrant and slightly caramelized. Set aside. If using canned tuna, drain and set it aside as well. Chop the tomato into small cubes, and prepare the sweet corn kernels for topping. -
Assemble the Pizza:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a baking tray with a light coating of cooking oil. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out onto the prepared tray, forming an even, flat base. Use a fork to lightly prick the surface of the dough to prevent bubbles from forming during baking. Lightly brush the surface of the dough with a thin layer of cooking oil. -
Add the Sauce and Toppings:
Spread a generous layer of bolognese sauce over the pizza dough. Evenly distribute the sautéed onions, canned tuna, diced tomatoes, and sweet corn on top. Sprinkle with oregano and generously cover with mozzarella cheese. -
Bake:
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly. -
Serve and Enjoy:
Once the pizza is done baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy your homemade Tuna Corn Pizza! 😊
