Place flour, salt, sugar and yeast in a large bowl. Mix everything well with a spoon. This helps the ingredients spread evenly.

Slowly pour warm water into the dry mixture. Stir gently as you pour. The dough will start to come together.

Add olive oil to the mixture. This makes the dough soft and smooth. Keep mixing until it forms a sticky ball.

Place dough on a clean surface. Sprinkle a little flour. Knead for about 10 minutes. Push, fold and stretch the dough until smooth.

The dough should feel soft and elastic. If it is sticky, add a little flour. Do not add too much or it will become dry.

Place the dough in a bowl. Cover it with a clean towel. Leave it in a warm place for 1 hour. It should double in size.

After rising, gently press the dough to release air. This step helps improve texture and makes shaping easier.

Cut the dough into 2–4 equal parts. Roll each piece into a ball. These will become your pizza bases.

Dust the surface with flour. Use a rolling pin or hands to stretch the dough. Make it thin or thick depending on your taste.

Place the shaped dough on a baking tray or pizza stone. Add sauce and toppings of your choice.

Preheat oven to 220°C. Bake for 12–15 minutes. The crust should turn golden and crispy.

Remove from oven and let it cool slightly. Slice and serve warm. Enjoy your homemade pizza.
