Beef Pizza with Blue Cheese and Caramelised Onion
Who doesn't love pizza? The sweetness of the caramelised onion pairs perfectly with the sharpness of the blue cheese. These pizzas are great served on a social summer's evening but be warned, the family will be requesting these mid-week as well.

- To make your own pizza bases; place 1/2 teaspoon sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons dried yeast in a small bowl and pour over 1/2 cup warm water. Leave until the mixture is frothy, about 5 minutes. Sift 3 cups flour and 1 teaspoon salt onto a clean, warm benchtop and make a well in the centre. Pour in 2 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons melted butter and 3/4 cup warm water. Add the frothy yeast mixture and mix well.
- Knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Place dough in a lightly oiled warm bowl, turn over to coat surface of dough with oil, cover bowl with plastic wrap and a tea towel. Leave in a draught-free warm spot until the dough doubles in volume, at least 1 hour.
- Divide the pizza dough into 2 pieces and flatten each piece until very thin. Place on the tray and prick well with a fork.
- Place in oven and bake at 220°C for 15 - 20 minutes until golden
