Quick and easy pizzas

1. 1

   Peel and finely slice or grate the garlic, then place in a pan on a medium heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil and fry until golden.

2. 2

   Scrunch in the tomatoes using your hands to break them up (or tip in and break up with a spoon as you go). Simmer for 5 minutes, or until thickened slightly, then season to taste with salt and black pepper. Remove from the heat.

3. 3

   Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7 and rub the inside of a 25x35cm/10x14in baking tray with olive oil.

4. 4

   Put the flour and a pinch of salt into a mixing bowl and make a well in the middle.

5. 5

   Pour 250ml/9fl oz water into the well, then use a fork to stir and bring in the flour from the outside to form a dough - when the dough comes together and becomes too hard to mix with your fork, dust your hands with flour and begin to pat it into a ball.

6. 6

   Knead on a flour-dusted surface for a few minutes, or until smooth and elastic.

7. 7

   Divide the dough into 4, then roll and stretch the pieces into 20cm/8in rounds or ovals.

8. 8

   Spread each base generously with the tomato sauce and tear over the mozzarella.

9. 9

   Squeeze the sausagemeat out of the skins and tear over the pizzas (if using). Prepare your chosen vegetable toppings (cut into bite-sized pieces) and scatter over the pizzas.

10. 10

    Drizzle lightly with olive oil, then cook on the top shelf of the oven for 10 minutes, or until golden and puffed up. Delicious served with a crunchy green salad.
