Step-by-Step Instructions
Follow each step to make the recipe successfully.
Prepare the Stuffing Base
In a mixing bowl, combine 1.5 tbsp each of finely chopped tomato (with pulp removed), finely chopped onion, finely chopped green capsicum, finely chopped red capsicum, and finely chopped paneer. Add 1 tbsp of boiled sweet corn.
Season the Stuffing
Add oregano and black pepper powder to the vegetable mixture. If you prefer a spicier taste, add chili flakes (this is optional).
Add Sauces
Stir in 1 tbsp of tomato ketchup. Optionally, add Schezwan chutney for an extra kick. If Schezwan chutney is unavailable, you can use pizza sauce, pasta sauce, or simply more tomato ketchup.
Incorporate Cheese and Salt
Grate 2 cheese cubes directly into the stuffing mixture. Add 2 pinches of salt, keeping in mind that the cheese is already salty. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined and the cheese is evenly distributed.
Prepare the Mini Buns
Take a mini bun and carefully slice off the top part to create a 'lid'. Using a knife, gently hollow out the center of the bun to create a cavity. Be careful not to tear the sides or bottom of the bun. Repeat this process for all 6 mini buns.
Fill the Buns
Remove the 'lid' from each bun. Fill the prepared cavity with the vegetable and cheese stuffing, pressing it down gently to ensure it's well-packed and the bun is full. Repeat for all the buns.
Add Topping Cheese
Take cheese slices and cut them into small squares. Place one small cheese square on top of the stuffing in each filled bun.
Cover and Coat Buns
Place the sliced-off bun tops back onto the filled buns, pressing them gently to secure. Using a brush, generously coat the entire surface of each bun with melted butter.
Garnish for Presentation
For an appealing look, garnish the top of each bun with a small piece of cheese slice, a small piece of green capsicum, and a small piece of red capsicum.
Arrange for Baking
Line a baking dish with butter paper. Lightly brush the bottom of each prepared bun with melted butter before arranging them on the baking dish, ensuring they are spaced apart.
Bake the Mini Pizza Buns
Place the baking dish in a preheated oven at 175°C (approximately 345°F) (347°F (approximately 175°C)). Bake for , or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly, and the buns have turned a beautiful golden brown color.
Serve Hot
Carefully remove the baked mini pizza buns from the oven. They are now ready to be served hot and enjoyed as a cheesy, creamy, and crunchy treat.
