Homemade Veg Pizza Recipe

I love pizza...who doesnt?! I was postphoning this veg pizza recipe just for the reason that I had to write more ;) Also I wanted to compile all the pics with stepwise, and the variations. And with no doubt this recipe is a keeper but I made adjustments here and there each time and finally found the recipe for perfect pizzas, So no more pizzas from restaurants.

I have tried 2 versions one the normal one which I have posted here...the other one low fat with whole wheat flour which I will post later. I am yet to post paneer tikka pizza which will be soon.

I have added onion, capsicum and corn here, you can have variations as per your liking. You can add paneer, mushroom, olives ,broccoli...the variations are endless....Be creative and use your own variations.

  3. When u check after an hr, the dough would have been raised.Now punch it down incase for any air bubbles and then keep aside in a warm place. I divided the dough into to make 2 small pizzas.Grease a baking tray with little oil. Keep the dough on the tray, and roll the dough a little thick.Just press the inside with your finger to get a impression as shown below to get a small depthness as shown below.Preheat the oven for 210 degree Celsius for 10mins.
