Ingredients
Method
1) Whisk together the yeast and 60 ml of the water in a small bowl and let sit for 5 minutes to proof. Place 400 g of the flour in a large bowl with the salt. Add the yeast mixture, the remaining water, and oil and stir until combined. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead until smooth. Grease a large bowl with the remaining oil, add the dough and turn to coat. Cover and place in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
2) Preheat the grill to high. Once the dough has risen, divide it in half, and divide each half into 2 balls. Roll each ball into an 20 cm circle. Brush with oil and grill on both sides until golden brown.
3) Spread about 115 ml of the sauce on each pizza and top with goat cheese and basil. Place pizza on the grill and cook until bottom crust is golden brown and cheese is bubbly. Remove from heat, drizzle with red chilli oil, and serve.
4) For the red-pepper sauce: heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until soft, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add red peppers and tomatoes and cook until thickened. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Puree in a food processor until smooth. Let cool slightly.
5) For the chilli oil: in a blender, combine oil, red chilli flakes, and salt; blend for 1 minute. Strain into a small bowl or squeeze bottle.
