Chapati Pizza Recipe

Chapati Pizza is a fusion recipe of Indian-style tortillas made into Italian-style pizzas. The only difference it is wheat-based and slightly thinner than the regular base. It is a great way to utilize leftover chapatis. This dish is a quick snack or perfect for a lazy dinner. I created this dish with ingredients available in my veggie box, but feel free to customize it according to your taste.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup wheat flour
  • salt to taste
  • water as required
  • 2 tablespoon onion
  • ⅓ cup capsicum
  • ¼ cup boiled sweet corn
  • ¼ cup grated cheese
  • oil to toast

For the Pizza sauce

  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • salt to taste
  • ½ teaspoon garlic
  • ½ cup big onion
  • 1 big sized tomato
  • 1 tablespoon tomato sauce
  • 1 teaspoon chilli flakes
  • ¼ teaspoon oregano
  • ⅛ teaspoon pepper powder

Instructions

  • In a wide mixing bowl add wheat flour, salt and first give a quick mix for salt to be even.
  • Then add water little by little, gather to form a soft pliable dough.
  • Once it is gathered to a mass add ½ teaspoon oil and knead it once. The dough should not be too tight or too loose, it should be non sticky at this stage.
  • Allow it to rest for a while until we prepare the sauce.
  • Blanch tomatoes till its skin starts to peel off by itself, drain water, remove the skin and trim the edge. Cut into half and transfer to a mixer.
  • Grind it to a smooth puree without adding water. Set aside.
  • Heat oil in a kadai – add garlic and sauté till golden brown, then add onion and sauté till transparent.
  • Then add tomato puree and let it boil for 3mins.
  • Then add tomato sauce, pepper powder, chili flakes and oregano and let it cook until the sauce is thick.
  • Once the sauce comes together to a thick spreadable consistency switch off and set aside.
  • Get ready with your ingredients. Toast capsicum in ½ teaspoon oil till it shrinks a bit.
  • Take chapathi dough and start rolling into slightly thick chapathi’s.
  • Heat a pan, cook chapathi on both sides. I removed the tawa from flame and then arranged the toppings. Spread the sauce.
  • Spread the veggies, such that it covers the whole chapathi.
  • Finally add grated cheese and then carefully transfer the tawa to flame.
  • Cook covered till cheese melts.
  • When you open the cheese should be gooey.
  • Sprinkle oregano, pepper powder and transfer to serving plate.
  • Use pizza cutter to cut into wedges and enjoy Chapathi Pizza hot.

Notes

  • Roll the chapati thick – While rolling the chapati, roll it slightly thick. Not too thick nor too thin. Keep the balance.
  • Cook on low flame – Cook the chapati in low flame so that the base cooks evenly.
  • Avoid overloading – Maintaining the balance is the key to a perfect chapati Pizza. Overloading can lead to moisture absorption and turn soggy.
  • Grease the pan lightly – This step is essential as this turns the base crispy and gives a golden touch.
  • Grate the cheese – Finely grate the cheese and let it melt on low flame. It adds uniformity and flavor to the pizza.
  • Customize sauces – if you don’t have time to make the sauce, you can take some ketchup, add grated garlic, and some seasoning as a quick alternative.
  • Use flat tawa – Use a flat surface that ensures even cooking and also makes it easy to remove the pizza once it's done.
  • Customize the toppings – Add some paneer, chicken pieces, or even tofu that can make it filling.
  • Pack it for lunch box – You can pack this delicious one-pan chapati pizza for your kid's lunch box. Wrap it up in butter paper so the moisture does not reach the chapati.
