Ingredients

For the base:

  • 1 and 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon instant yeast or (1 tablespoon active dry yeast)
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/8 cup oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • salt to taste

For the topping:

  • 1 tablespoon pizza sauce
  • 2 tablespoon onion chopped lengthwise
  • 2 tablespoon capsicum in each color
  • 2 tablespoon sweet corn kernels cooked
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes

Instructions

Pizza Base

  • To a mixing bowl - take flour(maida), add yeast and salt to it.
  • Mix well, Set aside. To another mixing bowl, take luke warm water.
  • Add milk, oil and sugar.
  • Mix well until sugar dissolves. Now add this mixture to flour.
  • Bring together. Knead for at least 5 minutes to a smooth dough. Cling wrap and set aside for 1 hour at least or until the dough doubles. When you check after an hour, the dough would have been raised well.
  • Brush the pizza baking tray with oil, sprinkle flour and keep it ready. Now punch the dough down incase for any air bubbles and then keep aside in a warm place. Roll the dough a little thick.
  • Transfer it to the baking tray and stretch it a little so that it forms a neat circle. Press it well so that its even. Press the edges with a back of a spoon to form a rim like effect. Preheat the oven at 200 DEG C for 10 minutes.
  • Now using a fork prick in the center for even cooking.
  • Brush well with oil/milk for even browning. Bake the base for 12 minutes or until the edges and center turn golden.

Pizza Topping

  • Spread the pizza sauce, I used the readymade pizza sauce. First add half of grated cheese.
  • Then arrange the toppings – I’ve used onion, sweet corn, capsicum. Then add remaining grated cheese, sprinkle oregano and chili flakes. Bake it again at 210 DEG C for 8-10 minutes or until the pizza is golden brown and cheese melts.
  • Cut the pizzas with pizza cutter/knife, make wedges and enjoy hot and yummy pizza! Serve hot! And its pizza time now , now lets dig in.

Notes

  • You can bake the pizza along with topping and cheese for 20mins too but since I want a golden crust and goey cheese I do it this way.If you bake it along with topping, you will not get the golden crust as in restaurants,also if you bake more for getting the crust the toppings get overbaked so I use this method of baking.
  • The dough shouldn't be sticky, if so add in a little more flour and knead again until it is less sticky.
  • I have used white flour here, you  can replace with 50% wheat flour too.
  • After the base is baked, you need not preheat again. Just arrange the topping and bake it.
  • I used instant yeast,so added it directly to the flour. If you are using active dry yeast(measurement in ingredients list), then proof it by adding it to the milk water mixture, if it bubbles up well then yeast is active ,you can proceed.
