Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220C/200C (fan)/390F.
- Sift the self-raising flour into a large mixing bowl and mix it with salt and water until you get a sticky and thick dough. Knead the dough with your hands on a floured surface for 1-2minutes. Leave the dough to rest.

- Roll the dough evenly onto a baking tray (use a rolling pin).
- Spread the tomato sauce on the base and add toppings.
- Bake for 15-16 minutes in the middle of the oven. Leave to rest for 2 minutes after baking, cut into slices and serve with fresh basil leaves, or a salad of your choice.
