*PREPARATION METHOD* 

1. In a large bowl, combine:  
All- propose flour, Yeast, Sugar, Salt, Milk powder, Olive oil, and Water, Mix well until shaggy dough begins to form.

2. Once the flour is mostly hydrated, turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and knead for 10-15 minutes. The dough should be soft, smooth, and bouncy. Form the dough into a taut round.

3. Grease a clean, large bowl with olive oil and place the dough inside, turning to coat with the oil. Cover and allow the dough to rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size. 

4. Meanwhile, prepare the Pizza sauce:
 Heat oil in a non-stick pan or heavy-bottomed pan; add Bay leaves & chopped garlic and sauté till they turn slightly golden brown (approximately 1 minute)

5. Further, add chopped onions (saute for 1 min), then add chopped tomatoes (saute for 1 min), later add the tomato paste and mix well then cover the pan and leave it to cook for 15 -20 mins. 

6. After 15- 20 mins make sure the sauce is thick if so then add Oregano, salt, and sugar then mix well and keep aside. 
(Note: Make sure the sauce is cooled to room temperature before you add onto the pizza crust.)

7.  Meanwhile, Prepare Pizza Crust
Apply oil to a pizza pan. Once the dough has risen, use your hands to gently deflate it and transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead briefly until smooth (about 2-3 times). Then cut into 2 equal portions and shape into rounds.

8. Use either your hands or a rolling pin to work the dough into 12" circle pizza pan.

9. Transfer dough to pizza pan and either pinch the edges or fold them over to form a crust.

10. Use a fork to poke holes all over the pizza to keep the dough from bubbling up in the oven.

11. Preheat the oven to 200 ˚C and then bake pizza crust for 5-7 mins.
(Note: Make sure pizza crust is cooled to room temperature before adding pizza sauce onto it.)

12. Once the pizza crust and pizza sauce are cooled. Add the sauce onto pizza crust, then add sliced onions, sliced bell peppers, sliced pepperoni, sliced turkey ham, sliced chicken sausage, sliced mushroom, sliced mozzarella cheese, and black olives (garnish) or desired toppings of your choice.

13.  Bake in a 200 ˚C preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until toppings are golden brown. Slice and serve hot for better taste.
