Instructions: 1. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.
2. Dissolve sugar and yeast in warm water in a large bowl; let stand 5 minutes. Add 1 1/4 c flour, oil, and 1/4 tsp salt; stir to form dough. 3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 10 minutes); add enough of remaining flour, 1 T at a time, to prevent dough from sticking to hands. 4. Place dough in a bowl coated with cooking spray; turn to coat top. Cover; let rise in a warm place (85 ), free from drafts, 30 minutes or until doubled in bulk. 5. Preheat oven to 450 . 6. Punch dough down; roll dough into a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured work surface. Place dough on a baking sheet or 12-inch pizza pan coated with cooking spray and sprinkled with cornmeal. Crimp edges of dough to form a rim. Let dough stand, covered, 10 minutes. 7. Place a small saucepan coated with cooking spray over medium heat until hot. Add garlic, and saute 2 minutes. Add 1/4 t salt, oregano, cilantro, fennel seeds, pepper, and tomato sauce; reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, 20 minutes or until mixture is thick, stirring occasionally. Spread sauce over pizza crust; sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 450 for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is golden. Remove pizza to cutting board; cut into wedges. NOTES : This pizza is our version of the ones served in the romantic comedy by the same name. In it, Leona, the owner of a local pizza parlor, closely guards her family sauce recipe thats made with a sweet blend of Portuguese spices. Julia Roberts plays a waitress who dates Adam Storke.
