Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go
  1. Make the dough

    In a bowl, mix the flour and yeast. Add 10 cl of lukewarm water and a pinch of salt. Knead for 10 min until you get a smooth, stretchy ball. Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rest for 1 h at room temperature.

    Tip · For an easier-to-digest crust, let the dough rest in the fridge for 12 h if you have time. Cover it well so it doesn't dry out.
  2. Slice the veggies

    Peel the onion and cut it into thin slices. Clean the mushrooms and cut them into thick slices. Drain the crushed tomatoes if they're very watery.

  3. Cook the onions

    In the nonstick skillet, heat 1 tsp of oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook them for 5 min until translucent. Set aside on a plate.

  4. Cook the mushrooms

    In the same skillet, add the rest of the oil. Cook the mushrooms for 5 min over medium heat until they release their water. Season lightly with salt. Set aside with the onions.

  5. Roll out the dough

    On a floured work surface, stretch the dough into a circle about 25 cm across. If it springs back, let it rest for 5 min before you keep going.

  6. Preheat the oven

    Preheat the oven to 240 °C (gas mark 8). If you have a pizza stone, put it in the oven while it heats.

  7. Top the pizza

    Place the dough on a sheet of parchment paper or right on the pizza peel. Spread the crushed tomatoes, leaving a 1 cm border. Scatter the onions and mushrooms on top. Sprinkle with half of the shredded cheese.

    Tip · To keep the dough from sticking to the parchment, dust it lightly with semolina or flour before placing the dough on it.
  8. Bake the pizza

    Bake the pizza on the middle rack for 12 to 15 min, until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn.

  9. Serve the pizza

    Take the pizza out of the oven and sprinkle it with the rest of the shredded cheese. Let it rest for 2 min before slicing and serving.

And there you go, it's readyCheck off every step to celebrate.
