Method: Make a mound of flour and salt, with a well in the centre. Mix the yeast into the water and pour into the well. Add the oil and knead until dough is elastic ( might take about 10 minutes). Leave the dough rise for 2 hours.

Preheat the oven to 200 C. Roll out the dough to 8 round shapes about 5 mm thick( it depends how do you like your pizza base). Spread some tomato sauce to each pizza base . Slice the sausages or ham. Arrange them on the pizza, use some diced tomatoes, sprinkle some cheese over and then some basil as well. Bake in the oven bout 15 minutes. I used some sliced tomatoes also.
I got 6 pizza bases from this quantity.
