Instructions:

Prepare the Dough:
- In a small bowl, mix the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Allow the mixture to sit for about 10 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the high-protein flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture and vegetable oil.
- Stir until the dough begins to come together. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- Divide the dough into two portions. Lightly oil your pizza pans or baking sheets. Stretch and press each portion of dough into the pans to form an even layer.

Prepare the Topping:
- In a medium bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, cooked sweet corn kernels, and drained tuna. Adjust the quantity of mayonnaise to your preference.
- Spread the tuna mixture evenly over the prepared pizza dough.
-
Assemble the Pizza:
- Scatter the sliced onions over the tuna topping.
- Sprinkle a generous amount of melted cheese and grated mozzarella on top.
- Finish with a sprinkle of dried parsley.

Bake the Pizza:
- Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
- Bake the pizzas for approximately 25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
-
Serve:
- Remove the pizzas from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before slicing.
- Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Pizza Tuna Melt!
