Ingredients for making Pizza at home:

A. For Pizza Base:
Refined Flour - 2 cups
Semolina - 2 tbsp
Yeast*** - 1 tsp 
Sugar 1 tsp
Salt - 1/2 tsp 
White Oil - 1 tbsp
Lukewarm water - 3/4 cup

***I have taken dry active Yeast, so I added it directly to the Refined Flour. If you take dry Yeast, you need to mix it in lukewarm water. Add little sugar. mix well. keep it aside for 5-7 minutes. Then mix with flour mixture. 

B. Pizza Sauce
Olive Oil - 2 tbsp
Tomato - 4-5 nos (Make paste out of it)
Garlic Paste - 1 tbsp
Salt - 1/4 tsp
Chili Powder - 1/2 tsp
Oregano - a pinch 
Rosemary - a pinch

C. For Toppings:
Capsicum - 1/2 
Onion - 2 
Mutton Sausage - 1 link 
Olives - 2 tbsp 
Mozzarella Cheese - 2 cups 

D. For Garnishing: 
Chilli Flakes 
Pizza Seasoning 

Process for making Pizza at home:
A. Pizza Base
1. Take Refined Flour in a mixing bowl. Add Semolina, Sugar, Salt, Yeast, Oil to the Flour. Mix them and then add lukewarm water to knead the dough. Add little water at a time to make the dough soft enough. Knead the dough until it gets soft. It would take 4-5 minutes. You can grease your hand while kneading. 
2. Divide the dough into two parts i.e. big size ball. 
3. Now you have to roll each dough. Spread little dry flour on the rolling board. Place one dough ball on the board. Now roll it with 1/2 centimeter thickness. Now prick the base with the help of a fork. The base is ready to be baked. 
4. Place a butter paper on baking tray. Grease it with white oil. Now place the base in the tray. 
5. Make another Pizza Base from remaining dough. Prick with fork. Like wise place this base too in the baking tray. 
6. Keep them aside for 2 hours so that they become puffy. 
7. Now preheat the oven at 200 degree centigrade. Place the base in the oven. Bake them  for 5-7 minutes. Now your Pizza base is ready. 
8. You can store Pizza Base in dry place for max. 4-5 days. 

B. Pizza Sauce
1. Heat oil in a cooking pan. 
2. Add Tomato paste to the oil. Keep stirring. 
3. Add Garlic Paste. Mix well. Add Salt and Chili Powder, then Rosemary, Oregano. 
4. Keep stirring until the sauce becomes thick and dark red in colour. 

C. Topping Preparation and Pizza Baking
1. Cut the Capsicum into two halves. Remove the seeds. Now slice it thinly. 
2. Chop onion in square size.  
3. Chop the link of Mutton Sausage in small square or semi circle size.  
4. Take Oil in a frying pan. Shallow fry the capsicum and onion. Take them out of the pan. 
5. Add little more oil to the pan. Fry Sausage pieces. Take them out of the oil. Set them aside. Turn off the heat. 
6. Grate Mozzarella Cheese with the help of the slicer. Keep it aside in a separate bowl. 
7. Apply Pizza Sauces on each Pizza Base. Then spread grayed cheese on top of the sauce. Now place all types of toppings above the cheese. Like wise prepare another pizza base with topping. 
8. Preheat the microwave at 200 centigrade. Place the pizza base (one at a time) in the oven. bake for 10-15 minutes. 

Your pizza is ready. Place the hot pizza in a plate. Now you just sprinkle the seasoning mentioned in the List D as much as you want.
