Delicious thin-crust pizza

Description

The recipe won't take much time. This pizza is a classic. Despite having no meat, it turns out tasty, aromatic, and delightful. If desired, you can add olives, ham, sausage, or several types of cheese. It's important to note that the charm of this pizza lies in the fresh basil—it can be replaced with dried, but it won't be quite the same. Serve it cooled down or slightly warm.
