Tuna Pizza

I long to eat pizza for a long time but due to the price, I rather eat in Chinese restaurant than spending the same amount of money eating 'bread'!

Baking pizza is just like baking bread. It takes hours to finish the job.






Unlike pizza restaurant where they have the dough ready, baking at home starts from mixing the ingredients.

Pictures showing process (Clockwise from top left)

Ingredients for one personal pizza (diameter approximately 6 inches)
125gram of plain flour
1 teaspoon of sugar
1/2 teaspoon of yeast
1/2 tablespoon of butter
12.5ml vegetable oil
50ml chilled milk
1/8 teaspoon salt

Filling:
1 onion (cut into small slices)
1 small piece of pineapple (cut into small cubes)
1 can of tuna
1 handful of mozarella cheese


1) Mix all the ingredients in a mixing bowl. Cover the bowl and let dough to rise for 40 minutes.
2) Punch the dough to release gas. Knead for 5 minutes and cover the bowl again to let the dough rise for 50 minutes.
3) Punch the dough to release gas. Roll out the dough into the desired size (fit into a pan with diameter 6 inches)
4) Pierce the base with a fork and bake at 180 degree Celcius for 10 minutes.
5) Add in the filling - onions, tuna, pineapple. Finally, sprinkle mozarella cheese on top.
6) Bake at 200 degree Celcius for 15 minutes or until the sides turn golden.


Note: The base should not be too thin. Otherwise, it is not strong enough to support the filling.
My tuna doesn't taste that nice. Better to get people's opinion on which brand of tuna to buy the next time. Till then, happy pizza-ing!
