mix the yeast with a little of the water to form a smooth paste.
sieve the flour into a bowl and add the salt and oil.
pour in the yeast mixture and then the water a little at a time, mixing throughout until you have a soft dough.
knead for 5 minutes then cover and leave in a warm place for 45 minutes or so.
peel and finely chop the onion and garlic.
fry it in a pan with a splash of olive oil for 5 minutes until soft and starting to colour.
splash in the wine and reduce by at least half then add the tomato passata, basil, salt and pepper.
simmer for 20-30 minutes until the sauce has a spreadable consistency.
allow the sauce to cool.
preheat the oven as high as it will go.
take half of the dough mix and roll out to the thickness of a pound coin.
spread over the tomato sauce, right to the edges and scatter with cheese.
arrange the topping of choice over the cheese and cook on a baking tray for about 10 minutes. The edges should be crispy and the cheesy topping melted and golden.
