Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180℃ with a baking sheet.

Step 2

In a large bowl, sprinkle the yeast and sugar over the warm water. Leave for 5 minutes until foamy. Add the flour, salt and olive oil and mix until it all comes together. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic.

Step 3

Shape into a ball. Put the dough into a lightly oiled bowl and cover. Leave to rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size.

Step 4

Turn the risen dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 3 minutes and then divide into 2 balls of the same size. Roll each ball out into 0.5 cm thick ovals and leave to rest for 10 minutes.

Step 5

Top each oval with rosemary and red pepper. Sprinkle with extra salt and drizzle with extra olive oil. Put into the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
