    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a small bowl, combine the lukewarm water, yeast, and a pinch of sugar. Let it stand for 5-10 minutes, until foamy.

    2

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil.

    3

    Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until it becomes elastic and smooth. Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for 45 minutes.

    4

    Preheat your oven to 430°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    5

    Roll out the risen dough thinly and place it on the prepared baking sheet.

    6

    Spread the ricotta cheese evenly over the dough. Sprinkle with minced garlic and freshly ground black pepper.

    7

    Scatter the cooked green peas and crumble the mozzarella cheese over the pizza.

    8

    Bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

    9

    Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, garnish with fresh basil leaves, and serve.
