Incredibly simple, apologies for the metric measurements if you're American:
2 dl* water
5 dl pizza flour (I imagine regular wheat flour could also work, the kind I use seems to be a mixture of regular wheat flour, durum wheat flour and yeast bread flour looking at the packaging)
15 grams of fresh yeast
(*1 decilitre equals 0,42 US cups)
Warm up the water, throw in yeast, mix in flour until the dough becomes nice and stretchy and stops sticking to your hands and the bowl. You'll most likely end up using slightly more flour than the stated 5 dl before the dough starts to feel right. I always add a little bit of olive oil into the dough which also helps if it starts feeling too dry and cement-y. Cover the bowl with a cloth and leave to rise for about 30 minutes. (I like to fill my kitchen sink with hot water and leave the bowl floating there for the duration)
Once the dough has doubled in size, get out your rolling pin. Unless you've got a huge oven and the huge oven pans to go along with it, you'll probably discover that there's enough dough for two pizzas. Roll the dough out into one or several pleasing pizza shapes and place them on baking paper. Cover with cloth and leave to rise for another 30 minutes.
Cover with tomato sauce and toppings of your choosing and bake for 12-15 minutes at 250C (482F), though I have to turn the heat down slightly in my oven or my pizzas will get a bit too burnt
What the fuck is a deciliter? Also, grams? Grams? How is a humble American like myself going to make heads or tails of this recipe? I'm just playing, most of us are very aware of grams 😉. DLs kinda shook me though.
A dl is one tenth of a litre, they're a very common unit of measurement in Nordic kitchens and probably not anywhere else- all the UK recipes I've seen have used mls instead.
Here stuff like cream and sourcream is also commonly sold in 2 dl containers
Looks great. Recipe for the dough?

Looks excellent, is that one of them famous pan pizzas I've been hearing about?

I meant the shape of your pizza, it looks to have that deep dish thing going on

instead of slathering tons of oil in the pan, lightly oil and then put down some cornmeal on top of the oil
prevents sticking and it will also make your crust crispier and more flavourful

I don't usually plan that far ahead with my pizzas, though I don't doubt the results would be even better if you took your time with the dough.
When I'm in the mood for pizza, I want to be consuming it as soon as possible
