Mix the flour, yeast, salt and sugar together in a bowl. Make a well in the centre.

Pour the water and olive oil in the centre of the well and mix until a loose dough forms.

Place the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead with your hands for 60 seconds or until a proper dough forms. It should be smooth on the outside and elastic in the centre.

Place the dough back into the mixing bowl, cover with a tea towel and leave to rise for three hours.

When doubled in size, preheat the oven to 435F/225C and line a pizza tray with baking paper. Place the dough in the middle of the tray and use a glass or rolling pin to roll the dough out so it reaches the edges.

Cover the dough in your favourite pizza sauce and toppings and bake for around 20 minutes, or until the toppings are golden, the cheese is bubbling and the base is crispy.
