Step 1
Prepare all the ingredients. It is preferable to make the dough in advance at home, as it is not always possible in a dacha setting, or buy a ready-made pizza base from the store. If you are using a frozen pizza base, thaw it first and brush both sides with olive oil. Let it rise.

I have homemade yeast dough, specially prepared for pizza; I roll it out into a circle or stretch it by hand and place it on an oiled pan suitable for cooking on a grill.
