Pizza Dosa



Hiiii everybody!!!

Pizza Dosa!! The name itself sounds very interesting, right?? And I am sure kids will love this. If your kids are not fond of any veggies, but if they love pizzas, just try this for them. They will surely come back for this healthy, crispy and tasty dosa again.

Here, I have my own version of tomato chutney to apply on the base. If you feel it is more spicy for kids, you can reduce the red chillies used for this preparation. Not only kids will enjoy this, every 1 will love this flavorful dosa.


Ingredients

  • Dosa Batter - 1 ladle full 
  • Oil / Butter - 1 tsp
  • Carrot - 1 small, grated
  • Onion - 1/2, sliced
  • Capsicum - 1/4, thinly cut lengthwise
  • Tomato - 1/4 , thinly cut lengthwise
  • Grated processed cheese - 1 tblspn
  • Salt - 1/2 tsp
  • Pepper - 1 tsp
  • Coriander leaves - Few, finely chopped

For Tomato chutney 

Also called pizza sauce is a preparation using onion, tomato and garlic. I have slightly indiansed it by adding red chillies to enhance the spice level (as my hubby likes this very much). You can add or omit it according to your preference. This is how you make a simple pizza sauce / tomato chutney for this pizza dosa. You need ;

  • Onion - 1, roughly chopped (preferably red onions)
  • Tomato - 2, roughly chopped
  • Garlic - 8 cloves
  • Red chillies - 5 (or according to your spice preference)
  • Salt -   to taste
  • Tomato sauce - 2 tsp
  • Oil - 1 tsp

Method

  • Heat oil in a pan and add garlic, red chillies and onion. Season them with salt and cook until onions become transparent. 
  • Add the tomatoes and cook till tomatoes are mushy. Switch off the heat and allow it to cool
  • Blend it to a smooth paste adding little water. Transfer to a bowl and mix tomato ketch up. Your pizza sauce is now ready.

Method to prepare dosa

  • Heat your tawa and grease it with little oil. Change the heat to medium and spread a ladle full of dosa batter on the tawa. Spread it to a thick dosa. You can even spread it thin in order to get a crispy dosa base. But should consider the risk of getting burnt. Always keep the heat low in that case. Smear some oil to the dosa. Cover and cook for few seconds.

  • Change the heat from medium to low and spread a spoon full of pizza sauce / tomato chutney all over the dosa. 

  • Now add all the veggies and coriander leaves (Tomato, onion, capsicum, carrot, sweet corn, etc. Any veggies of your choice)
 














  • Cover and cook it for another 2 - 3 minutes.















  • Sprinkle some salt and pepper on top
  • Finally, add some grated cheese. Cover again and cook for 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
















  • Gently remove the dosa using a spatula to a serving plate.















  • Cut your pizza dosa in to pies, using a knife or pizza cutter and serve (or serve as it is ;) )
