Directions

For The Pizza base

• In a bowl, add 2 tbsp of lukewarm water and dry yeast and mix it well and cover with a lid and keep it aside for 5 minutes.
• In a bowl, add the plain flour, yeast-water mixture, olive oil, sugar and salt and knead it into a soft dough by using enough water.
• Cover the dough with a wet muslin cloth and keep it aside for 1 hour.
• Press the dough lightly to remove the air and divide the dough into equal portions.
• Roll each portion into a 175 mm. (7”) diameter circle with the help of plain flour and prick each circle evenly by using a fork.
• Place a rolled dough on a greased baking tray and bake in a preheated oven at 180°c (360°f) for 5 minutes and keep it aside.

For the spinach and cottage cheese topping

• Heat the olive oil in a broad non-stick pan, and the onions and green chilies and fry on a medium flame for 30 seconds.
• Add the spinach and fry on medium flame for 1 minute and add the fresh cream, paneer, salt and pepper, mix it gently and cook on a medium flame for 1 minute and switch off the flame and keep it aside.

How to proceed

• Place a pizza base on a clean, dry surface and spread a portion of the spinach and cottage cheese topping evenly over it.
• Arrange ¼ cup of sliced yellow capsicum evenly over it and finally sprinkle ¼ cup of cheese evenly over it.
• Place the pizzas on a greased baking tray and bake in a preheated oven at 200°c (400°f) for 10 to 12 minutes or till the base is evenly browned and the cheese melts.
• Once baked, removed from the oven, cut into equal wedges and serve it with chilled fruit juice.
