Ingredients
-
400 g flour + some for dusting
25 g fresh yeast
5 tbsp olive oil
425 g tinned, peeled tomatoes, drained
1/2 bunch thyme, leaves removed and finely chopped
425 g tinned sweetcorn, drained

Preparation
-
Sift the flour into a bowl with a pinch of sugar and half a teaspoon of salt. Mix the yeast with 1 cup lukewarm water, and stir into the flour with 3 tablespoons of oil. Knead or use a food processor to mix until the dough is smooth and shiny. Cover the bowl and leave in a warm place for 50 mins.
Meanwhile, put the tomatoes in a bowl and mash them with a fork, then season, adding a pinch of sugar to taste. Add the thyme, keeping aside a tablespoon for decoration. On a floured work surface knead the dough again, then divide into two equal pieces. Roll each piece out into a circle about 10 1/4 inches in diameter, then place each one on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
To assemble the pizza, spread the tomato mixture over the base, taking care to leave a 1/3 inch border around the edge. Put the vegetables and olives on top and crumble over the feta cheese, then sprinkle with the cayenne pepper. Drizzle over the remaining oil, then bake in the lower half of a preheated oven 425\u00b0F. Serve hot with the rest of the thyme sprinkled over the top.
