Homemade tuna pizza recipe

Tadaaa! Another pizza recipe. I personally like homemade tuna pizza. Forget wasting your money on take-away pizza. Learn from scratch.  Learn how to prepare your own pizza dough and add your favourite toppings. Pizza is easier to make than most people realize. The Secret to a delicious pizza is the fresh toppings and please do not use cheap cheese!

Sauce :

1 1/2 tbsp olive oil

1 cup chopped onions 

2 chopped large tomatoes 

2 tbsp tomato puree

A pinch of salt

P/s - If you are too lazy to make sauce, you can use tomato or chili sauce.

Method :

1. On a medium hot frying pan put olive oil and add in 1/3 chopped onions. 

2. As soon as the natural sugar in the onions starts to brown on the bottom and edges of the pan, add 2/3 chopped onions, tomatoes, tomato puree and salt. Let it simmer for 20 to 30 minutes to reduce water content.

3. Pour into blender to make a smooth sauce. Blend for one minute and let it cool down. Set aside.
