Preparation

Step 1

 In a small bowl, add warm water and dissolve the sugar in it. Sprinkle the yeast on the warm water and stir to dissolve it. Set aside until the yeast starts forming bubbles in about 5 minutes.
 Pour the flour into a large bowl. Then add the olive oil, salt and the above prepared yeast mixture.
 Mix the ingredients to get smooth dough. Knead the pizza dough briefly with your hands pushing and folding. Knead just long enough for the dough to take in a little more flour, and until it no longer sticks to your hands.
 Dab with a thin film of oil and keep in a bowl and cover the bowl with a wet cloth or with plastic wrap. Keep it for approximately 1½ – 2 hours until the dough doubles in volume. The time required for rising will depend on the strength of the yeast and the temperature of the room.
 When the dough is about double its original size, punch it down to eliminate the air bubbles.
 Knead again and roll it to fit your Pizza Pan. Roll back the edges to get a small lip sized-wall at the edges.

Step 2

Method:
 Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a pan. Add the finely chopped garlic, onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes.
 Then add the tomatoes, salt, dried oregano leaves. Lower the heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes till a thick sauce is formed.

Step 3

Final Preparation & Baking:
 When the crust has risen a little, sprinkle oregano powder on the base and spread a thick layer of pizza sauce. Arrange the toppings over the sauce. Cover with grated cheese.
 Preheat the oven to 350F and bake for 20-25 minutes till the base turns golden and cheese starts melting.

 Cut into wedges with a Pizza Cutter and serve hot.
