Hello friends, my 11-year-old son likes to cook and he loves to watch cooking shows on television, I try to support him and give him certain responsibilities in the kitchen, but yesterday he came and told me that he wanted to make pizza because he had seen in a program and it seemed very easy, I did not have all the ingredients but I told him we could solve. In this post I am going to tell you how he prepared a pizza for the first time, which was very tasty.

Mi hijo arregló todos los ingredientes y realizo la mayoría de las tareas, yo me encargue de tomar las fotografías, cocinar la espinacas, meter y sacar del horno la pizza, me dijo que iba hacer una masa simple de harina, agua, sal y polvo de hornear (usamos este porque como dije anteriormente no teníamos todos los ingredientes y eso incluye la levadura), estas son las cantidades que usamos:
• 2 tazas de harina
• 1 cucharadita de sal
• 1 cucharadita de polvo de hornear
• Agua (cantidad necesaria)

My son arranged all the ingredients and did most of the tasks, I was in charge of taking the pictures, cooking the spinach, putting the pizza in and taking it out of the oven, he told me that I was going to make a simple dough out of flour, water, salt and powder. of baking (we used this because as I said before we did not have all the ingredients and that includes the yeast), these are the amounts we use:
• 2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• Water (required amount)

Hizo un volcán con la harina donde luego agregó el polvo de hornear, la sal y añadió agua, fue incorporando todos los ingredientes, cuando ya obtuvo una masa que no se pegaba en sus manos comenzó a amasar ejerciendo un poco de fuerza ( se puede ver su rostro en las fotografías).

He made a volcano with the flour where he then added the baking powder, the salt and added water, he was incorporating all the ingredients, when he already obtained a dough that did not stick in his hands he began to knead by exerting a little force (you can see his face in the photographs).

Al tener una masa muy suave, enharinó una taza grande coloco la masa, tapó y reservó por media hora mientras preparó la salsa y yo cocine la espinaca.

Having a very soft dough, he floured a large cup, put the dough, covered and reserved for half an hour while he prepared the sauce and I cook the spinach.

Para la espinaca en un sartén coloque una cucharada de mantequilla y media cebolla picada, cuando la cebolla se cristalizó agregue la espinaca y deje cocinar. Este es un ingrediente saludable que decidí incorporar a la preparación aprovechando que a mis hijos les gusta de esta manera en tortillas y otras recetas.

For the spinach in a pan place a tablespoon of butter and half chopped onion, when the onion has crystallized add the spinach and let it cook. This is a healthy ingredient that I decided to incorporate into the preparation, taking advantage of the fact that my children like it this way in tortillas and other recipes.

La salsa la preparamos con 4 cucharadas de puré de tomate, albahaca fresca, orégano, media cucharadita de azúcar y agua, dejamos cocinar hasta que se unificaron los sabores y la salsa se redujo a la mitad.

We prepare the sauce with 4 tablespoons of tomato puree, fresh basil, oregano, half a teaspoon of sugar and water, let it cook until the flavors are unified and the sauce is reduced by half.

Después de media hora sacó la masa y con una botella estiró hasta el tamaño del molde, donde la traspasó y dobló las orillas (como él había visto en uno de sus programas).

After half an hour he took out the dough and with a bottle he stretched it to the size of the mold, where he went through it and folded the edges (as he had seen in one of his programs).

Para armar la pizza, primero colocó la salsa y esparció por toda la superficie, continuó con tocineta picada en cuadros pequeños, jamón, espinaca, queso cheddar y orégano, lleve al horno por aproximadamente 20 minutos.

To assemble the pizza, first placed the sauce and spread over the entire surface, followed by bacon chopped into small squares, ham, spinach, cheddar cheese and oregano, put in the oven for about 20 minutes.

Así culminó la primera vez de mi hijo, fue una experiencia súper agradable para mí como madre, viéndolo desenvolverse de una manera fantástica, concentrado, trabajando con mucho entusiasmo para que todo le saliera bien. Me encantó dejarlo realizar su preparación, creo que a partir de hoy seguirán viendo publicaciones de mi hijo cocinando y yo estaré muy orgullosa de mostrarles sus creaciones.

This is how my son's first time ended, it was a super pleasant experience for me as a mother, watching him develop in a fantastic way, concentrated, working with great enthusiasm so that everything went well for him. I loved letting him do his preparation, I think that from today on you will continue to see publications of my son cooking and I will be very proud to show you his creations.
