Chaat Pizza

I know! its crazy what one can do with a pizza base. Store bought or home made dough could create the chaat magic. By experimenting with different toppings I kind of ended up making pizza with the left over mint and sweet chutney.I must say, this is my favorite kind of pizza on any given day. I love chaat flavors and this pizza hot out of the oven is something I would not like to trade anything for. By adding the chaat ingredients it was so colorful and aromatic. I was drooling that it was hard for me to photograph the pizza . In fact,I have been meaning to make it ever since Lavi announced that she was having the global kadai event where she called for Indian flavors inspired pizza. But before I can get my camera the pizza's were gobbled. Not this time, I sustained the torture to post it and send my belated entry to Lavi's event and keep my promise. For all the chaat lovers like me I give you the "Chaat Pizza".


Gadgets:

9 inch baking pan - 3
Measuring cups and spoons for dry ingredient
Measuring cups for wet ingredient
Bowl
Cling Wrap
Rolling pin
Oven
Microwave
Cutting Board
Knife

Ingredients for Pizza Topping: ( Makes three fool proof 9 inch pizza)

All Purpose Flour - 2 1/4 cup plus extra for making the base
Salt- 1 tsp
Yeast - 2 1/4 tsp
Sugar- 1 1/2 tsp
Milk- 1 cup
Oil-2 tbsp plus extra for prep the bowl

Preparation:

1. Add the flour, salt and yeast in the food processor or electric mixer with a dough hook. Mix the ingredients.

2. In a liquid measuring cup add milk,sugar and oil and heat it in the microwave for 1 minute or until it is warm to touch or 110 degrees F.

3. Turn on the food processor and pour the liquid little at a time and let it run. When all the liquid is added to the mix it must form a dough. Keep running the food processor or electric mixer for 3 to 4 minutes. You will be left with the most perfect dough to work with.

4. Make a ball coat with 1 tsp of oil and place it in a bowl, cover with cling wrap and put it in a warm area in summer and in winter heat your oven to 200 degrees, on preheating turn off the heat and put the bowl in until it doubles in size ( from 45 to 60 minutes).

5. Once the double doubles remove and place it on the cutting board. Divide the dough into 3 parts. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.

6. Take the three 9 inch pans. Add sufficient oil ( 2 tsp/pan) and spread well. Roll out one portion of the dough taking care to see that they are thinner in the center and thicker in the sides.

7. Place it in the baking pan and add the desired topping.


Ingredients for Chaat Topping:

Mint Chutney - 1/3cup (Make sure the chutney is not watery)
Sweet chutney - 1/3cup
Ketchup or Marinara Sauce - 3 tbsp
Onions - 2 large finely chopped
Deseeded Tomato ( Roma) - 3
Cilantro - 1/3 cup chopped
Sev/ Om podi - 1/2 cup
Chaat Masala Powder - to taste
Green chillies - 1 finely sliced ( or more for spice)
Mozzarella Cheese - 3/4 cup shredded ( or more)

Preparation:
1. Take one 9 inch pan with the pizza dough( as mentioned above). Mix the 2 chutneys and the sauce together. Spread lightly.
2. Sprinkle the onions and tomato and top it off with cheese. Place it in the 425 oven for 15-16 minutes. The base must be golden brown and if you lift the pizza with a spatula it must show a golden crust in the bottom.
3. Remove from the pan and place it on a wooden board. Sprinkle some fresh onions, cilantro, green chillies and sev. Cut and serve it hot.
