OVEN VERSION- Preheat the oven to 180
Apply Butter on both side of pizza base and bake it for 3-4 mins. I do this to get a crispy crunchy taste.
Generously apply cheese sauce on the base, add broccoli mix, jalapenos, oregano. Sprinkle the grated mozarella cheese on top. Bake it for 15-18 mins until cheese melts. Add additional toppings as required and serve hot with sauce/Ketchup
STOVETOP Version- Butter both sides of pizza base and warm it up on Tawa....Bottom should be just warmed while the top should be browned....switch off and transfer the pizza base
The lightly warmed surface will be bottom and browned surface will be pizza base to add the contents.Generously apply cheese sauce on the base, add broccoli mix, jalapenos, oregano. Sprinkle the grated mozarella cheese on top
Add 1 tbsp butter, heat the tawa or shallow pan. Carefully place the pizza . Cook on low flame, cover while cooking. Care should be taken that it should not be cooked uncovered and at the same time should have some air while cooking. Place a spatula between the lid and pan
Cook for 7-9 minutes until cheese melts. Shift the pizza to the plate ...Add the toppings and serve hot with sauce/Ketchup
