To prepare Pizza, first we need a base called Pizza Base.

Ingredients fro Pizza Base


(Serve size 4)


Maida 500gms.


Oil 2 tsp

Mix together yeast. sugar, and warm water. Keep aside for 5-10 minutes. Sieve maida.


Make a depression in the centre & pour the ready yeast mixture. Knead a soft dough with it using warm milk and water.


Cover the dough and keep it in a warm place to ferment for anbout 1-2 hours or till it doubles in size. To knock back the risen dough, turn it onto a board and knead it with your knuckles. This knocks out the air bubbles producing a more even texture.

When ready to use, make balls out of the dough. Roll into 1/4" thickness for Pizza Base. Place on a tray and cover with a wet muslin cloth. Allow it to rise for sometime. Pick each base and bake in a pre-heated oven at 200*C for 10-12 minutes.
