For the Dough

All purpouse flour – 3 cups
Yeast – 1 packet
Salt- ½ tsp
Sugar -1/4 tsp
Butter – 2 tbsp
Yogurt – ¾ cup(might vary when you knead the dough)
extra flour while kneading

Vegetables - capsicum,onion,brocolli,olives,jalapeno,tomatoes
Pasta sauce - 2 cups

italian herbes -1 tsp
paparika -1/2 tsp

Method

  1. Mix the yeast in ¼ cup luke warm water. keep it aside for 10mnts.
  2. Mix all the ingredients except yogurt. Add enough yogurt to make it into a thick dough. Put it in a wide vessel and cover it with a plastic wrap. Let it sit for 4 hrs. It will rise almost double the size.
  3. Cut any of your favourite vegetables and keep it aside.
  4. Brush some olive oil on a pizza pan.
  5. After 4 hrs when the dough is risen take it out and knead it again. Flour the working area and start making a 8-10” thin circle.
  6. Then put it on the pizza pan and spread it out with hands.Brush some olive oil on top of the dough.
  7. Spread tomato sauce(I used pasta sauce). Sprinkle mozzarella cheese. Arrange all the vegetables on top. Sprinkle more mozzarella cheese, Italian herbs and little paprika if you have.
  8. Preheat the oven to 450degrees. Bake it for 15-20 mnts.
