Mix until the dough comes together. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic).
  • 2Put the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place for 45 minutes or until the dough doubles in size.
  • 3Meanwhile, make the yogurt dressing, combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

  • 6Sprinkle the semolina onto a clean surface. Turn the dough onto the semolina and punch down to remove the excess air. Knead until smooth. Stretch the dough out until it is large enough to cover the pizza pan.
