Instructions
Mix the flour, yeast, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add the vegetable oil and gradually add warm water while mixing until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough for about 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in an oiled bowl, cover and leave in a warm place until doubled in size.
Heat the oil in a pan and sauté the onion and garlic. Add the minced beef and cook while breaking it into small pieces.
Add the diced bell pepper, seasoning, black pepper, mixed herbs and salt. Stir in the pizza sauce and cook until the mixture is thick and most of the excess liquid has evaporated. Allow it to cool slightly.
Punch down the risen dough and roll or press it into a greased pizza pan, leaving the edges slightly thicker for the crust.
Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over the dough. Add the cooked minced meat topping and spread it evenly.
Generously cover the topping with grated mozzarella cheese.
Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 18–25 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted, bubbly and lightly browned.
Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes, slice and enjoy while hot and extra cheesy! 😋🍕🧀
