Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Yeast Mixture
Take a bowl and pour in warm milk. Add one spoon of dry yeast, a little sugar, and a little salt. Mix well and for until it becomes frothy.
Step 2: Prepare the Dough
Add about 1.5 cups of wheat flour to the yeast mixture. Gently mix it with your fingers to form a soft dough. Avoid too vigorously. Cover the bowl and let the dough rest for until it doubles in size.
Step 3: Shape the Pizza Base
After , gently press the dough to release air. Transfer it to a greased pan (or a wooden board) and use your palm to flatten and spread it into a circular pizza base. Make sure the base is not too thick.
Step 4: Add Cheese to the Crust
Place small pieces of cheese (cubes or slices) along the edges of the pizza base. Fold the edges of the dough over the cheese to create a stuffed crust. Gently press down to seal.
Step 5: Poke Holes and Apply Sauces
Using a fork, poke several holes across the surface of the pizza base to prevent it from puffing up too much. Squeeze tomato ketchup and mayonnaise onto the base. Use a spoon or fork to gently spread the sauces evenly over the base.
Step 6: Add Toppings
Evenly spread the thinly sliced onions and carrots over the sauce layer. Then, add the leftover gobi pieces (like gobi manchurian) as the main topping.
Step 7: Add Cheese
Generously sprinkle cheese cubes and grated mozzarella cheese over all the toppings. Ensure even distribution for a cheesy pizza.
Step 8: Cook the Pizza
Place the pan on a gas stove over a medium flame. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for approximately . The pizza is ready when the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.
Pro Tips
• Knead the dough softly to ensure a fluffy pizza base.
• Do not press the sauces too hard when spreading to avoid deflating the dough.
• Cook on a medium flame to ensure even cooking and melted cheese without burning the base.
Recipe Variations
• Use different vegetables like bell peppers, corn, or mushrooms.
• Add paneer or tofu for extra protein.
• Experiment with different pizza sauces or herbs like oregano and chili flakes.
