CHEESY, MELTY CAPSICUM TOMATO PIZZA from a scratch!

I am always amazed and awed when baking with yeast, I think it is the most satisfying of all my baking experiences.The aroma of fresh pizza baking in the oven is unparalleled and makes everyone's tummy growl.You can only imagine how difficult it was to keep the wolves at bay while I clicked photographs :)
Baking the pizza base is so easy and effortless and the results are delightful, crisp on the outside yet tender bread inside, the toppings can be altered according to preference.
