# Ingredients:

→ Crust

01 - 2 2/3 cups plain flour
02 - 3/4 cup milk powder
03 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
04 - 1 package instant yeast
05 - 1 teaspoon table salt
06 - 1 2/3 cups lukewarm water (110–115°F)
07 - 2 tablespoons cooking oil

→ Filling

08 - 1/2 pound spicy Italian sausage
09 - 1/2 pound lean beef mince
10 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
11 - 1/2 teaspoon table salt
12 - 1 (8-ounce) chunk of mozzarella cheese

→ Sauce

13 - 1 (6-ounce) tin tomato paste
14 - 1 1/2 cups tap water
15 - 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
16 - 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
17 - 1 teaspoon table salt
18 - 1 teaspoon black pepper
19 - 1/2 tablespoon oregano flakes
20 - 1/2 tablespoon dried basil leaves
21 - 1/2 teaspoon crushed rosemary

# Instructions:

01 - Heat your oven to 475°F. Spray an 18 x 13-inch tray with cooking spray and put parchment on top. Mix flour, milk powder, sugar, yeast, and salt in a big bowl. Stir them well. Pour in the warm water and oil. Mix with a wooden spoon until you get a smooth mix with no dry spots. Push the dough across the tray using your fingers. If it won't spread, wait 5 minutes and try again. Bake it for 8–10 minutes until slightly firm. Take it out and let it cool.
02 - Cook Italian sausage and beef mince in a pan. Add salt and pepper while cooking. Break up the meat into small bits. Drain off the fat when it's done and put the meat aside.
03 - Put tomato paste, water, olive oil, chopped garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, basil, and rosemary in a pot. Mix well and cook on low heat until flavors blend. The sauce tastes better if you make it a day early.
04 - Smear the sauce all over the partly baked base. Scatter the cooked meat on top, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella over everything.
05 - Put the pizza back in the hot oven at 475°F for 8–10 minutes until the cheese turns golden and bubbles. Let it sit for 5 minutes before you cut and serve it.
