Hankerie's Hawaiian Pizza - Made in OZ

In year 2011, I was focus too much on cakes. In the beginning of this year, I've taken on the new challenge to bake Pizza - first time in my life. That's my husband favorite too especially Hawaiian Pizza, he can eat almost 2 big 10-inch (25.5cm) pizza in one go. Gosh!

In Australia, not only all kind of cheeses can be found here easily but also the price is way cheaper than Malaysia. Approximately 600g of mozarella cheese only costs around AUD5 with additional 20% discount sometimes. Such a good deal. In fact, pizza is quite easy to make.

Below is my recipe and method to share with all my fans here, you also can do it yourself at home. I am sure that your family will definitely impress and ask for more variety next time. You may put whatever favourite toppings, all depends on your choice. Undeniably, it will be much nicer than buying from outside.
