Detroit-style pizza

Method

1. 1
   For the dough, set up a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment. Tip the flour, sugar, yeast and 160ml warm water into the bowl. Start mixing on a slow speed. Once the dough has formed into a rough ball, add the salt, increase the speed to medium and knead again until smooth. You can also do this in a large bowl, using your hands to bring the dough together and knead it until it springs back to the touch.
2. 2
   Roll the dough into a smooth ball and transfer to a bowl greased with oil. Cover with a clean, damp cloth and leave in a warm place for about 2 hours or until doubled in size.
3. 3
   Grease and line the base and sides of a roughly 25x20cm roasting tin with baking parchment. Transfer the dough to the lined tin and gently press it out with your fingertips to fill the space. Leave to prove in a warm place for 2-3 hours or until the dough has completely filled the corners of the tin.

   Meanwhile, make the Detroit sauce. In a pan, mix all the ingredients except the salt and sugar, then set over a medium heat and simmer for 30 minutes until reduced, stirring frequently. Once cooked, season with the salt and sugar and stir well.
