Instructions

Activate the Yeast:
In a small bowl, combine the instant yeast with a little warm water and the granulated sugar. Let this mixture sit until it becomes frothy, indicating that the yeast is active. -
Prepare the Dough:
In a large mixing bowl, add the all-purpose flour, salt, and vegetable oil. Gradually incorporate the activated yeast mixture, adding a little at a time, and knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. -
Let the Dough Rise:
Cover the dough with a damp cloth or cling wrap and allow it to rest in a warm place for about 30 to 60 minutes, or until it has doubled in size. -
Cook the Toppings:
While the dough is rising, sauté the chopped onion and other toppings in a pan until fragrant. Set aside once cooked. -
Prepare the Oven and Baking Tray:
Preheat your oven to the required temperature. Lightly grease a baking tray with a little vegetable oil. Roll out the risen dough, placing it on the prepared tray. Prick the surface with a fork to prevent bubbling. -
Assemble the Pizza:
Brush the surface of the dough with a thin layer of vegetable oil. Spread the Bolognese sauce evenly over the base. Scatter the sautéed toppings, canned tuna, diced tomato, and sweet corn on top. Finish with a generous sprinkle of oregano and mozzarella cheese. -
Bake the Pizza:
Place the pizza in the oven and bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling. -
Serve and Enjoy:
Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly. Slice and serve warm, enjoying the delightful combination of flavors in every bite. 😊
