Instructions

1. Step 1: In a large bowl, dissolve 1 tsp active dry yeast in 150 ml warm water and let it activate for 10 minutes until frothy. Add 250 g all-purpose flour, 1 tsp salt, and 2 tbsp olive oil, then knead for 8-10 minutes until a smooth elastic dough forms. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour until doubled in size.
2. Step 2: Preheat your oven to 485°F (250°C) with a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to simulate a wood-fired effect. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 12 inches diameter, then transfer to a parchment paper.
3. Step 3: Spread 100 ml tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Layer 150 g sliced mozzarella cheese evenly, then arrange 100 g thinly sliced sucuk and 100 g roasted bell peppers on top. Sprinkle 1 tsp dried oregano for aroma.
4. Step 4: Transfer the pizza on parchment to the preheated stone or baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese bubbly and slightly browned.
5. Step 5: Remove from oven and scatter 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley over the pizza before slicing and serving warm.
