Sprinkle the grated mozzarella evenly over the pizza base, then drizzle the creme fraiche over the top. Add the elbow macaroni, again sprinkled evenly on top.

In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the sugar in the warm water, and then add the yeast. When the mixtures starts to foam on top, after about 3 minutes, add the flour, olive oil and salt. Knead for 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and shiny. Add more flour if necessary to get the right consistency. Place the dough in a large, lightly-oiled bowl, cover with cling film and set aside to rise, 1 to 2 hours. When the dough has doubled in size, remove from the bowl and knead again. Divide into 4 equal dough balls and allow to rest before shaping into thin 12-inch round pizza bases. Makes four 12-inch pizzas.
