Pork Tomato Pizza with Basil

Hi everyone! So this is my first time trying to do the 'blogging' things, hehehe.
 
After decades (since my mom always takes over the kitchen), FINALLY!! I can try my own pizza experiment! I got the recipe from Donal Skehan website (after I saw his video making the pizza). I did improvement on the recipe - I changed meat with pork..
 
Okay then! Here is the recipe (with my changes)..

For the pizza dough:
250g white flour / bread flour
175ml of lukewarm water
7g fast action yeast
1tbsp olive oil
1 tsp caster sugar
1 tsp salt

For the tomato sauce:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 onio, peeled and finely
2 x 400g tins of chopped tomatoes
1 tsp dried orageno
100ml red wine


For the toppings:
Basil leaves
Mozzarella
Pork/meat (chopped nicely)

In a large mixing bowl combine the salt and flour and make a well in the centre.
Mix the water with the sugar, yeast and oil and whisk until combined.
Pour this mixture into the centre of mixing bowl and using a wooden spoon or your hands mix together to form a rough dough.
Turn the dough out on a floured work surface and knead for 10 minutes or until the dough becomes smooth ands elastic.
Place back in the bowl and cover with cling film.
Leave in a warm place to rise for 50 minute or until it has doubled in size.
Place a pizze stone in the oven and preheat to 250 C.
Punch down the risen down and divide into 4 small balls or 2 large ones depending how big you want your bases to be.
Sprinkle the work surface with a little semolina and roll out each ball as thin as possible. Spoon on a couple of tablespoons of the tomato sauce.
Add on your toppings, as little or as much as you like. Bake each base for 4-5 minutes on the pizza stone.

Ps: I'm not using several ingredients from Donal Skehan's recipe because I don't have them, but the pizza still tastes great. Thanks to Donal Skehan!
