Method
- Add the yeast to the water and let rest for 10 mins to combine
- Make a mound of flour on a flat, clean, work bench, create a hole in the center and slowly add in the yeast mixture.
- Preheat oven to 180oc
- Cover your hands in flour so as the mixture wont stick to your hands.
- Knead flour mixture until all combined add your good sea salt and honey. The more you knead, the better the dough will be....10mins is about all i can take. - Roll to desired shape. Set aside and let it rise a little.
- Sprinkle the Pizza tray with a little polenta or semolina to prevent sticking.
- Bring 500mls of water to the boil add salt to taste, slowly add your potato slices and let simmer for 2 -3 mins
- Saute sliced onion in a little oil until just soft.
Combine all ingredient lay slices on your base thinly and randomly, sprinkle onion, rosemary and thyme over the pizza add a good drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
- Place on tray and bake 15 - 20mins until Potatoes just begin to go golden Brown on the edges. Yum, I can almost smell it....and that's it you have just created and authentic Pizza, "Viva Italia".
Serve with a crisp Italian white wine Pinot Grigio, Gavi or even a nice Soave.
