Pizza assembly
Add yeast to warm water, then add sugar, stir briefly and leave in a warm place
Add all remaining ingredients to a large bowl
Add olive oil and the yeast mixture, adding more flour if too runny or more water if too doughy
Roll out the dough
Keeping an inch away from the dough's edge, line the circle with the cheese
Fold the inch around the border over the cheese, tucking or forking it into the crust
Place marinara sauce, toppings and remaining cheese on top, and bake at 350°F for 20 minutes
