  • Now divide the dough into equal portions.
  • Take one portion and roll it into pretty thick rounds. Prick it with a fork all over.

  • Remove and let it cool down.

Notes

1)The dough which you make should be very soft and slightly sticky before the first rise, once it is risen then add more more and knead to a soft dough. This ensures that the pizza base stays soft
2)You can cook the base in a low heat so it cooks right into the center.
3)You can store this in fridge for a week and freeze them for more than a month.
