Procedure
Start of with the pizza base.. Take a bowl add the maida then the yeast , oil , salt & sugar..Add water and knead it until the dough is uniform and bubble free.. Take a moist cloth and cover it for 2 hours..
In the mean time to make the pizza sauce take a small grinder or mixer and add 3 De-Skinned tomatoes,1 capsicum, garlic, pepper, a tsp of oregano,green chillies, salt to taste & mix it for like 15 seconds until you get a smooth sauce. Stir fry the remaining capsicum and tomatoes with pepper for a minute and keep it aside.Boil the sausages in hot water and keep it aside too.. Stir fry it with a bit of pepper if you want to..Its not really necessary though..But I did !! Dice the onions finely.
Now take a nonstick tawa and rub in a bit of butter or oil or extra virgin olive oil.. Make balls out of the dough and flatten it until it is like 1/2 cm thick or lesser..Make it circular like 15 cm dia ..Not necessarily though again xD.. Take a fork and puncture everywhere on it..Now once the tawa is heated add the chappati
shaped flattened dough and let it heat one side until it is slightly brown..Turn the other side and now smear in the pizza sauce evenly & generously..Add a layer of mozarella and the sausage & vegetable mixtures..Add some diced onions and top in with a lot of mozarella and the sauce.. Cover the pan for some time and the flame must be low like really low ..Check the crust and it has to be like golden brown and slightly crisp..Cover it approx 10 mins , but you'll have to check once in a while so that the base doesnt get burnt...Using a spatula serve it on a plate..Sprinkle a bit of oregano and serve it hot while the cheese is all melted with coke or pepsi!! So you can make like 5 medium pizzas with the above ingredients at a price which is even lesser than one single dominoes or whatever :-D
