summer pizza.perfect.

London weather's been on good form the last six weeks which means alfresco coffee, lunch, din, drinks...and as mentioned before the bbq. it's been a while since i last made pizza on the grill but it's a fun, light and yummy summer nosh. embarrassingly, i was excited like Adam on man vs food when everything kept turning out as planned..I was expecting a mess and quick hands during the cooking but the dough was perfect and all went smoothly! i combined ingredients from previous recipes and this is by far the best turn out. if you don't have access to a barbecue, don't worry you won't be left out. just pop your masterpiece into the oven for about 15 min at 200C/400F

why not whack on some veg while you've got the grill hot?! Eggplant (aubergine) and goats cheese is my fave.. What's on your summer pizza?

the ingredients 

1 sachet of yeast (7g)

1c warm water

1/2tsp sugar

a bit of beer or white wine (1/4c?)

1/2tsp salt 

3c plain flour 

1tbsp olive oil 

the method 

combine the yeast, sugar, warm water and alcohol and let sit to dissolve for about 5 minutes or until it starts to fizz. add salt and olive oil and stir. add a cup of flour, mix well then slowly add the rest of the flour (i think we used just about 3 but see how it feels, it was a little sticky when we took it out to knead) place the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-8 minutes (or enjoy the rest of the wine while someone else does it for u ;) 

lightly oil a bowl, moving it around so all sides are covered. place the dough in the bowl, cover with a tea towel or cling film and place in a warm part of the kitchen for about 45 minutes. 

prep your toppings and heat your barbie while the dough rises! 

once dough has risen divide into 3 and roll it out to your desired shape. 

then...

bon appetit!
