Ingredients ( using one dose of my dough recipe)

8 fresh  chopped tomatoes (or 2 cans of tomato sauce)

15 fresh basil leaves

12 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil.

Start to prepare the dough using my recipe Traditional Italian Homemade Pizza (dough) recipe, spread olive oil on flat cooking tray, then lay down the dough.

Place on the top tomato and spread it, then drizzle with olive oil and basil leaves. Bake in preheated oven at 250° for 10/12 min, remove from the oven and cover with pieces of mozzarella, then bake again for 2/3 min or until the mozzarella melts.
