Instructions
  1. For the pizza dough:
  2. Add the yeast to warm water. Add 2 tsp of sugar to it. Mix and set aside for three minutes.
  3. In a bowl, drop the flour, salt and pour the yeast mixture. Put your hand in and bring it together. Mix until everything is combined. Knead for ten minutes until smooth.
  4. Brush the tops of the dough with a little oil to stop them from drying out. Cover both bowls with a plastic wrap and place it into a warm place for two hours. I place them inside a microwave or an oven (oven turned off).
  5. Once it is roughly doubled in size, knock any excess air out. Place back in your surface. Divide into two and simply flatten using roller or hand. Roll out each dough part into a thin crust about ½ inch thick. Paneer curry
  6. Take 1 tbsp of butter in a pan, place the paneer cubes and pan fry for a minute in each side till they become crispy golden. Keep it aside. (Optional step)
  7. Take 1 tbsp of butter in a pan; add the blended/pureed tomatoes, garlic ginger paste, turmeric powder, mango powder, chilli powder, cumin powder, coriander powder and salt. If you want rich color, you can add kashmiri chilli powder. I used normal one.
  8. Cook for about 10 minutes on a medium flame till everything gets cooked.
  9. Add dry methi leaves, cream/almond milk, sugar, water and boil for five-seven minutes. Add sautéed paneer, boil for 5 mins and switch off.
  10. Garnish with chopped coriander or grated paneer, ginger or cream. To make the pizza:
  11. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees and place a pizza stone/ or a normal baking pan in the oven and preheat it for 20 minutes. I preheated my stone/pan for 20 mins when I was preheating the oven too.
  12. Place the rolled out pizza dough on a pizza peel or an upside down baking sheet and start topping it. Using a ladle, add the paneer sauce and use the back of the spoon or ladle, swirl it over the top of the dough for an even texture. Add the toppings and top it with shredded cheese and place the pizza into the pizza stone. Cook for twenty minutes, rotating half way through to insure even cooking. img src="https://www.relishthebite.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/IMG_6741.jpg"]
  13. Your pizza is ready!
Notes
1. For mixing the dough, you can use even a stand mixer for ten minutes. But even hand kneading works fine.
2. If you don’t have a pizza stone, you can use a large baking sheet just place it in the oven upside down so there are no edges to stop them
3. You can always make one pizza and freeze the other dough ball.
