Derictions:

Make the Dough: Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, salt, sugar, and yeast in an enormous bowl.

Add water and softened margarine and blend on low speed, utilizing a mixture snare, until completely consolidated, 1 to 2 minutes, scratching sides and lower part of bowl sometimes. Speed up to medium and massage until the batter is lustrous and smooth and pulls from sides of the bowl, 4 to 5 minutes. (You can without much of a stretch make this the hard way, blending in the water and margarine with a spatula and afterward manipulating manually.)

Cover an enormous bowl with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Utilizing a lubed spatula, move the mixture to the bowl, going to cover the batter in oil; cover firmly with cling wrap. Let climb at room temperature until almost multiplied in volume, 45 to an hour.

Make the Sauce: While mixture rises, heat the margarine in a medium pan over medium hotness until softened. Add onion, oregano, and salt; cook, mixing every so often until fluid has dissipated and onion is brilliant brown, around 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, around 30 seconds.

Mix in tomatoes and sugar, increment hotness to high, and bring to a stew. Lower hotness to medium-low and stew until diminished to around 2½ cups, 25 to 30 minutes. Off the hotness, mix in the basil and olive oil, then, at that point, season with salt and pepper.

Cover the Dough: Turn the batter out onto dry work surface and roll into a 15×12-inch square shape. Utilizing an offset spatula, spread the mellowed margarine over the outer layer of the mixture, leaving a ½-inch line along the edges. Beginning at the short end, fold the batter into a tight chamber. With crease side down, level the chamber into a 18×4-inch square shape.

Slice the square shape down the middle transversely. Working with one half, overlap into thirds like a business letter; squeeze creases together to frame a ball. Rehash with the excess half. Return balls to the oiled bowl, cover firmly with saran wrap and let ascend in cooler until almost multiplied in volume, 40 to 50 minutes. In the interim, change broiler rack to bring down position and preheat stove to 425 degrees F.

Prepare the Pizzas: Coat two 9-inch round cake skillet with 2 tablespoons of olive oil each.

Move 1 mixture ball to dry work surface and carry out into a 13-inch circle. Move batter to the dish by moving the mixture freely around a moving pin and unrolling into the skillet. Daintily press mixture into the skillet, working into corners and 1-inch potential gains. Assuming mixture opposes extending, let it unwind for 5 minutes prior to attempting once more. Rehash with residual batter ball.

For every pizza, sprinkle 2 cups mozzarella equally over the outer layer of the mixture. (Assuming you're utilizing any meat or veggie garnishes, add them now, on top of the cheddar.) Spread 1¼ cups pureed tomatoes over the cheddar (or fixings) and sprinkle 2 tablespoons Parmesan over the sauce. Heat until outside layer is brilliant brown, 20 to 30 minutes. Eliminate pizza from the stove and let rest 10 minutes prior to cutting and serving.

Enjoy !
