Simple pizza, a classic recipe that brings to mind moments spent with family and friends. This is a fantastic choice for a quick yet hearty meal that will delight any taste buds. In this detailed guide, I will teach you step by step how to prepare a delicious pizza with a soft dough base and a savory filling. Preparation time: 20 minutes Baking time: 40 minutes Total: 1 hour Number of servings: 4 servings Necessary ingredients: For the dough: - 1 cup of milk (250 ml) - 1 cube of fresh yeast (approximately 25 g) - 1 teaspoon of sugar - 100 g of butter - 400 g of flour - A pinch of salt For the filling: - 3 pickles - 500 g of homemade dried sausage - 2 eggs - 3 tablespoons of milk - 100 g of telemea cheese - Mustard, ketchup, mayonnaise (to taste) - Salt and pepper to taste Step 1: Preparing the dough In a large bowl, add the flour and make a well in the middle. This simple trick helps activate the yeast. In this cavity, add the cube of yeast, a bit of warm milk, and the sugar. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until the yeast becomes frothy. This is a sign that it is active. Step 2: Combining the ingredients Once the yeast is active, add the rest of the milk, melted (but cooled) butter, and the pinch of salt. Use a wooden spoon to mix the ingredients until a dough starts to form. Knead the dough with your hands for 5-10 minutes, adding a little flour if necessary, until it becomes elastic and smooth. Well-kneaded dough is the key to a fluffy pizza! Step 3: Resting the dough Let the dough rest for 10 minutes in a warm place, covered with a damp towel. This step is essential to allow the dough to rise, giving it a light texture. Step 4: Preparing the filling Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Slice the sausage and pickles into thin rounds. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with a fork. Add the 3 tablespoons of milk and mix well. This mixture will add a subtle flavor and help bind the ingredients. Step 5: Assembling the pizza After the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface until you get a round shape. Place it in a greased round baking tray. Arrange the sausage and pickles on top of the dough, add mustard, ketchup, and mayonnaise to taste, then grate the telemea cheese on top. Finally, pour the beaten egg mixture to bind everything together. Step 6: Baking the pizza Preheat the oven to a medium temperature (about 180°C) and place the tray in the oven. Bake the pizza for about 40 minutes or until the dough turns golden and crispy, and the filling is well cooked. Step 7: Serving Once the pizza is baked, let it cool slightly before cutting it. Serve warm, perfect to enjoy alongside a fresh salad or a cold beer. Variations and suggestions This simple pizza recipe is versatile. You can add other ingredients based on your preferences, such as mushrooms, olives, salami, or fresh vegetables. Additionally, for an extra burst of flavor, you can add herbs like oregano or basil to the dough or filling. Nutritional information This simple pizza has approximately 250-300 calories per serving, depending on the added ingredients. Telemea cheese provides a good source of calcium, and the sausages add protein, but it's important to consume in moderation, considering the fat and salt content. Frequently asked questions - Can I use dry yeast instead of fresh yeast? Yes, you can use dry yeast.
