I'm back with a very quick and easy pizza recipe and the dough used for this particular recipe is extremely versatile and can be used for almost anything!
I came across this 10 min. dough recipe a few years ago on an Arabic forum (can't remember the name for the life of me) and I found this amazing recipe! It comes in two parts and only takes 10 mins.
Part one:
1/4 cup sugar
2 Tbs fast acting yeast
2 cups warm water
2 cups plain flour
Whisk to combine, cover with cling film and a tea towel and allow to sit for 10 mins.
Part two:
1/2 cup olive oil
3 cups plan flour
Mix in part two with part one, once the 10 mins. is over. At this point you can either use your hands to mix or use a mixer with the dough attachment to combine everything together.
You will find that the dough will keep rising and this recipe is good for at least 3 large pizzas.
For the Zaatar you can purchase the zaatar mix from a middle eastern grocer or dry your own oregano and add sesame seeds to it.
Zaatar mixture
In a bowl mix in 5 tbs of the zaatar mix with enough olive oil to cover the dry zaatar. Stir with a spoon.
Take a hand full of dough you like and press it down on a pizza tray or you can free handed-ly shape your dough. Spoon a few table spoons of the zaatar and oil mixture on to the dough and spread around to cover the surface. Place in the oven until golden*. Add a pinch of sumac on top of the pizza for added taste.
For a healthier option you can substitute plain flour for wholemeal flour, which is what I did!
*You may find that the zaatar has dried up you can simply add more mixture while its cooking to keep it moist.
