Doughballs!

Any

Bringing up this very old thread, because I would like to make a perfect copy of Pizza Express dough balls in my breadmaker... (it has setting for kneadling a dough).
Anyone can recommend a recipe that will be the closest to the Pizza Express balls please?

I often have bits of dough leftover when i make pizza, they sound nice. Now i know what to do with it.

Oh I love dough balls. We always have them when going to PE. I love PE generally though:-) Not very OS, but I use vouchers from Tesco or deals they email me.

What is your recipe for the dough then please?

I throw the balls ( made after 1st rising_)in a high sided tray ( foil if you want to throw it away) - and let it rise again slightly then before baking throw blobs of garlic butter in so the cooking dough soaks it up and the overall effect is much more what you get in ..for example - pizza hut..

I use my normal pizza dough. Roll into balls, dot them with garlic butter then bake for about 12 minutes. They always stay lovely and soft

Could you share your normal pizza dough recipe? Mine seems to come out different every time even though I stick to the same recipe!

Sure internet searches are great but it seems not to matter how well rated they are, it's still a toss up whether or not it will work for me. I guess the people rating them are top notch bakers or liars maybe! lol

A recipe from a nice sensible English (none of that cups rubbish) money saving type would be great! :T

500g Bread Flour
7g yeast
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
350ml water

Put the flour in a large bowl, add the sugar and salt to one side, yeast to the other. Add the water and mix to form a soft dough, knead for about 10 mins then prove for an hour or so.

now i know how to make the dough balls, can anyone shed any light on the spicy dip in the sharing dough balls and how to make it at home?
we were lucky enough to get a voucher for PE and it was the first time i had eaten there.. imagine, at my age, and there are still fast food places I haven't tried yet.
any way I loved the dips so if you can help let me know please.
obviously i can do the garlic and pesto ones.
