Pizza Sauce

- Heat oil in a pan and sauté chopped garlic until fragrant. Add the blended mixture along with the other ingredients and let it simmer until it thickens. Use as required.
Tandoori Chicken
- To prepare the chicken, simply combine all the ingredients and let it marinate for about 30 minutes.
- Heat oil in a pan, add the marinated chicken pieces and fry them. After cooling, shred the chicken as desired.
Pizza Preparation
- Once the dough is risen, give it a quick knead and then roll it out to 1/4 inch thickness and about 10 inches in diameter and place it on your greased pizza pan.
- Evenly spread half of the pizza sauce, and add chicken, toppings, and cheese. Finally, sprinkle with Italian herbs and chilli flakes to taste.
- Once done, bake the pizza in a preheated oven at 200C for 10-12 minutes, until the cheese melts and the crust becomes crisp. Adjust the baking time to your oven.
