Preparation:

This is from one of Martin Yan's books... I haven't tried this, but it looks pretty tasty. In general, I don't care for Yan's recipes, although I do get a kick out of his show. I don't know what it is, but the few things I've made from this book just don't seem to quite make it. 1. To make crust: Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let set for 10 minutes. Stir in oil and salt; add flour gradually. Knead dough for 10 to 15 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place in greased bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place free from drafts until double in bulk (1 1/2 to 2 hours). Punch down dough and roll into thin crust. Make 2 pizzas of 12" diameter, 1/4" thickness. Place crust on baking sheet. 2. Combine ingredients for sauce and set aside. 3.Heat oil over high heat; put in garlic and ginger, stir for 5 seconds. Add remaining ingredients, except hoisin sauce, catsup and sesame oil; reduce heat to medium-high. Stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes. Add hoisin sauce and catsup and stir-fry for another minute. 4. Spread sauce on dough, then top with stir-fried vegetables and meat; brush sesame oil on top. 5. Bake pizza at 375F for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve and enjoy. REMARKS: One cup of sausage is equal to 3 sausages. For a classier pizza, add 1/2 cup sliced prawns For added hotness, put 1/2 teaspoon hot chili oil i
