Pizza
Preheat one or two stone pizza trays (if using) in a 240C oven (464F) / 220 C Fan (428 F).
Divide the dough into two parts.
Using the extra flour you reserved, roll out each one of them into a pizza base.
Keep them under a towel when not ready to go to the oven.
Spread the Nomato Sauce, add the ricotta and return to the oven for about 5 minutes or until cooked. The pizza should neither be burnt, nor look wet.
Garnish with freshly torn basil just before you serve.
