Ingredients

500g strong white bread flour
1 sachet easy blend yeast
2 tsp fine sea salt
300ml tepid water
5 tbsp Filippo Berio Classico Olive Oil(extra for oiling)
Filippo Berio Extra Virgin Olive Oil to drizzle

Method

Stir the flour and yeast together and then sprinkle over the salt. Make a well in the centre of the flour and pour in the water and 4 tbsp of Filippo Berio Classico Olive Oil. Mix to form a dough.
On a floured work surface, knead for about 5 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. Shape the dough into a ball and place in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover and leave in a warm place until doubled in size.
Tip the dough into a baking tin approximately 23cm by 33cm. With well-oiled hands, stretch the dough to evenly cover the tin, dumpling the surface with your fingertips.
Cover the dough with your topping, drizzle with Filippo Berio Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Leave to prove for about 1 hour until risen. Preheat the oven to 210°C.
