Instructions

• 1 In the stand up mixer add 3/4 cup + 1 tablespoon lukewarm water and sprinkle
  with the yeast, let sit for 5 minutes. Start the mixer and add half the flour,
  knead with the dough hook. Add the remaining flour and salt. Continue to knead,
  if too dry then add the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of water, continue to knead
  for 8-10 minutes.
• 2 Move the dough to a lightly floured flat surface and knead a few times into a
  smooth ball. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, rolling it to lightly
  cover the top with the oil. Cover the bowl with a clean tea towel or plastic
  wrap and let rise for an hour in a warm draft free room. Remove the dough from
  the bowl punch it down a few times. Divide the dough into 2 parts or leave one
  if making a thick crust pizza*. Cover again and let rise for an hour. Again
  knead the dough a couple of times, then place on the lightly greased pan/skillet
  and let rest for 15 – 20 minutes.
• 3 With your hands shape the dough to fill the pan. Place the pan on low heat,
  cover and cook for about 10-15 minutes or until golden brown on the bottom. Flip
  the dough over and spread the topping on the top. Cover and cook on low heat for
  about 10 minutes, uncover and sprinkle with shredded mozzarella. Cover again and
  cook for another 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted. Check to make sure
  the bottom of the pizza has browned. Serve immediately.
• 4 In a medium frying pan add the olive oil, garlic, chopped mushroom, onion,
  tomatoes, chopped sausage and spices. Cook until tender.
