Alternatively, use 20g fresh yeast and allow the dough to rise for 2 hours at room temperature.
For the Sauce
Season the tomatoes together with the oregano, salt and pepper. Set aside for later.For the Preparation
Preheat the oven to 250-270°C top/bottom heat. Place the pizza stone in the oven to heat. If you do not have a pizza stone, use a baking tray.Carefully transfer the first piece of dough onto baking paper, lightly flour and then use your fingers to form a circle 25cm in diameter. Be careful not to force too much air out of the dough.
Pour some of the sauce on the dough and spread it to the edge using a basting brush or the back of a spoon. Sprinkle the cheese on top.
Place the pizza on the baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. The cheese should be melted and the edges should turn brown.
Place a quarter of the rocket on top, three slices of parma ham and a few cherry tomatoes.
