Ecomely’s estimate, calculated from the ingredients with the ANSES Ciqual food composition table, excluding sides and seasoning added to taste.
Instructions
- Dissolve the yeast in the lukewarm water with a spoonful of sugar, let it rest 5 minutes, then mix with the flour, salt and oil.
- Knead for 8 minutes until you have a soft dough, then leave it to rise for 1 hour in a warm place, covered, until doubled in size.
- Preheat the oven to 230 °C and generously oil a rectangular dish or a large tin.
- Spread the dough in the dish, pushing it up the sides to form a thick edge.
- Spread the tomato sauce, scatter the onion, then cover generously with mozzarella right to the edges.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbling, then sprinkle with oregano and serve hot.
Variations and tips
Fugazza-style version. Replace the tomato sauce with a layer of mozzarella alone and add plenty of onion for an even meltier pizza.
Using what's easy to find. T55 flour can be replaced with ordinary bread flour, and the mozzarella can be swapped for a mix of mozzarella and Emmental.
