Combine warm water, yeast, and 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a bowl.

Add salt, sugar, semolina, and flour to the mixture.

Mix the dough with a spoon until it's hard to handle, then switch to a mixer until smooth and elastic.

4

Knead the dough for 2-3 minutes and place it in a greased bowl covered with plastic wrap to rise for 45 minutes to an hour.

5

After rising, place the dough in the fridge for 35-40 minutes for easier handling.

6

Preheat the oven to 480°F.

7

Roll out or stretch the dough to fit a non-stick pan, using semolina or cornmeal to prevent sticking.

9

Bake in the oven for 7-10 minutes until ready, checking for doneness.

Optionally garnish with fresh basil before serving.
