Chili Veg Pan Pizza

Chili Veg Pan Pizza

(In the above pic i have used Mexican blend of cheese & all veggies as toppings)

(In the above pic i have used paneer as my topping & only mozzarella cheese)

For making the pizza we need to make quite few preparations like making the base separately,than making the toppings,making the sauce & than of course combining everything together & making yummy pizza.

For the toppings we`ll need
(You can add any toppings of your choice,here i m sharing what i have added as toppings)




Chopped chunks of  onion 1 medium(make sure you chop big chunks of all the veggies you add)
chopped chunks of bell peppers(i have used combination of green & red bell peppers to add colour) 1 cup
chopped carrots 1/2 cup
chopped spring onion
boiled corns 1/2 cup
so ya sauce 1tsp
ketchup 1 tbsp
vinegar 1/2 tsp
salt as per taste

Process of making the toppings
1.In a large pan add 1 tsp olive oil,to this add chopped onions,saute it for few Min's.

2.Next add all other veggies bell peppers,carrots,spring onions.
3.I have also added few boiled corn kernels.



4.After saute it for 4-5 Min's now add tomato ketchup, so ya sauce,vinegar & salt.cook for about 2-3 Min's,do not overcook them because you need that crunch in your veggies.



5.Toppings are done keep it aside.

*please note that toppings can be modified as per individual taste & availability of items,if you have paneer you can add paneer to the above veggies it tastes even better,if you like mushrooms you can add.

For the sauce 

You can buy market ready sauce,or if you have tomato ketchup & some red chili sauce you can combine these two,to get that perfect sauce for spreading on your pizza base.







Ingredients for pizza base
(it will make approx 6-8 pan pizza,depending on the size you choose)





All purpose flour 1 cup
Whole wheat flour 1 cup
Dry active yeast 1 packet/2tsp
Salt as per taste
Warm water 3/4 cup
Olive Oil1tsp

Recipe for making the base of pizza

1.Dissolve the dry active yeast 2tsp/1 packet in 3/4 cup of lukewarm water(make sure the water is neither cold nor very hot,otherwise the yeast will not rise),mix well,cover it & keep it aside for 10 Min's to let it rise.

2.Now in a big bowl mix all purpose flour,wheat flour & salt,now make a well in the center,in it pour the yeast mixture,let it set aside like this for couple of Min's.


3.Now mix everything together,in case you need more water to knead the dough you may use,but make sure to use only warm water.in the end apply 1tsp olive oil to smooth the dough.

4.Now cover this with a damp cloth & let it rest for at least 1 hr before you start rolling.

5.Now after resting for 1 hr the dough will rise almost double in size.


(at this point pre-heat the oven at 365*F )

6.Now start rolling the dough,into a quarter inch thickness.


7.Now with the help of a pie cutter cut it into desired size pizzas or if you can just cut it with the help of any round shape object like i have used the cap of one my containers,which is of perfect pan pizza size.lay the on the greased oven tray.

8.Now apply a thick layer of tomato sauce,which we have already prepared.

9.Now top it with toppings which we had already made, i have also added some cherry tomatoes cut into halves on top.


10.Now spread some grated cheese on top,i have used store bought Mexican blend of cheese.but combination of  mozzarella & Parmesan works great as pizza toppers.


11.Now this is all set to go in a pre-heated oven at 365*F  for almost 20 Min's or until they are done.


Yummy Pan pizza are ready to be served,serve them hot.Enjoy.
