Handy Tips
Tip: Use pre-bought pizza bases if desired.
Use a pizza stone or pizza oven for an even crispier base.
Method
- Combine yeast, water and sugar in a small jug. Stand in a warm place for 10 minutes, until frothy.
- Mix flour and salt in a large bowl, make a well in the centre and pour in yeast mixture and oil. Stir to form a soft dough. Turn dough onto a lightly floured bench and knead for 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover loosely and stand in a warm place for 45 minutes or until doubled in size.
- Knead the air out of the dough, and divide into three balls. Roll out each ball into a long 30cm x 20cm rectangle shape. Sprinkle semolina over three baking trays and transfer dough to trays.
- Spread hoisin sauce over each pizza, sprinkle with half the mozzarella and half the spring onions. Top with duck and remaining mozzarella. Bake at 220°C for 13-15 minutes until golden and bubbling.
- Remove pizza from oven and top with remaining spring onion, cucumber, coriander and a squeeze of lime juice. Serve immediately.
