It can be done even better: let the dough rise for days

For the dough: Crumble the yeast into lukewarm water. Add the sugar, flour, salt, olive oil, and nutmeg. Knead the ingredients for about 5 minutes. Turn the oven on briefly, then turn it off again immediately. Place the bowl with the dough in the oven for an hour. For the pizzaiola: Briefly fry the onion and garlic clove in a little olive oil. Add the tomatoes and spices and blend thoroughly with a food processor. Let it simmer for 5-10 minutes. Roll out the dough thinly to make four large pizzas, spread the pizzaiola on top, and arrange the toppings. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 180°C fan-assisted oven.
