Preparation
Step 1
Sprinkle yeast and sugar into water and mix. Allow to sit for 10 mins until mix starts to bubble.
Combine flour and salt in large bowl, make a well in the centre, pour in yeast mix and beaten egg and gradually work in the flour to make a dough.
Turn out onto lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic - at least 5 mins. Use onle enough flour to keep the dough from sticking to the surface.
Place in lightly oiled bowl, turn dough to coat with oil and cover with a clean cloth.
Allow to rise for 45 mins, or until doubled in volume. Punch down and then use as directed in recipe. (Use rolling motion with fists to force-stretch dough to size of pizza pan).
