Pizza Paratha Recipe
Pizza Paratha is a stuffed flatbread made using wheat flour dough with vegetables, cheese and sauce. It has soft inside with cheesy filling and slightly crisp outside. It is little different from regular paratha because it has pizza flavor with oregano and chilli flakes. The cheese melts inside and gives gooey texture.

Ingredients
For the paratha:
- 2 cups wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon oil
- salt to taste
- water as needed
For the inner stuffing:
- ¼ cup onion finely chopped
- ¼ cup capsicum finely chopped - I used green and red capsicum
- ¼ cup baby corn steam cooked & sliced
- ¼ teaspoon oregano
- ½ teaspoon chilli flakes
- salt to taste
- 2 tablespoon pizza sauce
- ⅓ cup cheese grated
- oil to toast
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 1 teaspoon oil and knead it once. The dough should not be too tight or too loose, it should be non sticky at this stage.
- To a mixing bowl, add onion, capsicum add salt to it. Set aside for 5mins.
- It will let out water, strain it. Now add oregano and chilli flakes.
- Mix well and set aside. Now make 2 lemon sized balls.
- Flour the surface and roll the dough thin. Spread pizza sauce on one paratha.
- First sprinkle 1 tablespoon of cheese. Then spoon the filling, sprinkle more cheese to cover the filling.
- Now place another paratha on it and seal the edges by folding inwards.
- Heat dosa tawa, carefully place the paratha on the tawa. Drizzle oil and cook on both the sides until golden brown spots appear here and there.
- Cut into wedges and Enjoy Pizza Paratha!
Notes
- Dough texture – I keep the dough soft and non sticky. If dough is too tight it may not roll easily and can break while rolling.
- Removing water – I keep the chopped vegetables aside and remove extra water from it. This helps to avoid soggy filling and keeps it better.
- Rolling – I roll paratha evenly so that stuffing spreads well inside. Do not make it too thin or filling may come out.
- Sealing – I press and seal the edges properly so filling does not come out while cooking. If not sealed well it can open up.
- Cooking – I cook in medium flame till both sides get golden spots. This help to cook inside properly and gives good texture.
