PLAIN PIZZA BASE
Plain pizza base made from scratch. It's easy and non messy. I like to prepare this for kids pizza party as it is easy to roll and makes about nine small thin-crust pizzas. You can roll it thick and make about four 9" pizzas.

Steps:
- Find a deep and wide mixing bowl, [Try not to do it on a flat surface such as counter top as it takes more time and can be quite messy. I usually use a wok as i have one:)] Add in the flour.
- Add in yeast and just mix it lightly with the flour.
- Add in water. To be on the safe side, do not add all, always leave a little in the cup and add more if necessary. Mix the mixture with hand until you knead it to a dough that does not stick to your hand.
- Add the olive oil at this stage. You may substitute this with butter or margarine. It's to give the dough its nice golden brown colour when baked. Knead it for a minute.
- Add the salt. It should be 1 flat teaspoon not heap. Knead it for 2 to 5 minutes.
- You may also add ingredients at this stage such as rosemary, basil, cajun spice, etc and made it your unique pizza base.
- Divide and roll to your desired thickness and size. Dust the working surface well with flour. Cover the unused portion to avoid drying out. [If you want to save the dough, divide and roll it tight as a ball, the wrap it with clear plastic film. Keep it in the freezer. I keep them for maximum 2 weeks. Before using it, let it thaw for 30min to an hour, It might get a bit sticky as it has all those water condension. Add a bit of flour and roll your dough.]
- Preheat the oven to 250 degree celcius.
- Add your favourite ingredients and put in the oven to bake at 220 degree celcius for 10 minutes.
