Preheat the oven 400 degrees. In an electric mixer, whisk the yeast, water,  
and oil, together, to form a paste. Using a dough hook, add the flour and  
salt to the paste, mix the dough until the dough comes away from the sides  
and crawls up the sides of the hook. Remove the dough from the bowl and turn  
the dough into a greased bowl, cover. Let the dough rise until double in  
size, about 1 hour. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and divide  
into four 4−ounce balls, cover. Let the dough rest for 10 to 15 minutes.  
Press each dough out into a 10−inch circle about 1/2− to 1−inch thick.  
Lightly brush the dough with olive oil. Divide the potatoes into four  
portions and season with salt and pepper. Cover each dough with the  
potatoes, leaving a 1−inch border. In a small mixing bowl, toss the red  
onions with the extra−virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place a  
layer of the red onions on top of the potatoes. Sprinkle each pizza with the  
grated cheese. Drizzle each pizza with the truffle oil. Bake for 15 to 20  
minutes or until the crust is crispy and golden−brown. Garnish the pizza  
with chives. This recipe yields four 10−inch pizzas.
