Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast and salt.
2. Add half the water and mix so the flour absorbs it, then add the rest and mix until fully combined.
3. Drizzle in at least 4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and keep mixing.
4. Seal the bowl airtight with cling film, cover with a damp cloth, and rest at room temperature for 3 to 6 hours.
5. Oil your hands, lift the dough out onto an oiled bench, drizzle with a little more oil, and divide into two equal pieces.
6. Fold and slap the dough 4 to 5 times until smooth and stretchy, oiling your hands if they get sticky.
7. Coat both baking trays generously with oil. Flatten each dough ball slightly and place it in a tray, pressing lightly. Cover tightly and rest for at least 3 hours.
8. Stretch the dough from the centre outward with your fingertips, flipping once, until it fills the tray. Drizzle with oil and spread evenly.
9. Par-bake in a preheated oven at 230°C / 450°F for 20 minutes.
10. Season the tomatoes with a little salt, spread over the par-baked base to the edges, and bake at 230°C / 450°F for 5 minutes.
11. Remove, sprinkle with Pecorino Romano, add fresh mozzarella, drizzle with olive oil, and bake again at 230°C / 450°F until the cheese melts and bubbles with golden edges.
