How To Make Pizza Dough

You NEED to master this.

YOU NEED:
1 1/2 cups warm water
2 tsp  dried yeast OR baking powder/soda
Pinch of sugar
 (4 cups) plain flour
1 tsp salt
60ml (1/4 cup) olive oil, plus extra for brushing

Method
Combine the water, yeast and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes or until foamy. Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl and make a well in the centre.
 Add the yeast mixture and oil. 
Use a fork to gradually combine.
Use your hands to bring the dough together in the bowl.
Brush a bowl lightly with oil. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
Should make dough enough for 3 pizzas. Use right away, or store in a bag in the freezer. 
If making pizza right away, add some flour and roll it out.
