Learn how to make delicious Paneer Tikka Pizza In Microwave in 3 1/2 minutes. Many of you requested me to show this recipe on YouTube. So here it goes.

Paneer Tikka Pizza

Pizza is an Italian dish. It is a flatbread also called pizza base, made with flour, salt, olive oil and yeast solution. Then topped up with tomato sauce, any topping of your choice and loaded with lot of cheese, and baked in an oven. It is commonly topped with a selection of meats, vegetables and condiments.

Dry Yeast for fermenting pizza dough

Pizza dough is getting ready to fermenting

Most of us love to eat cheesy pizza from famous outlets. But it is really easy to prepare at home and needs only 3 1/2 minutes to cook in microwave.

Yeast solution made with lukewarm water & sugar.

Fermented dough

Normally, you can buy un-baked pizza base from market and then top it up with cheese and veggie’s to bake. But it doesn’t taste so good. So I tried making in my microwave and the pizza came out much better & economical.

pizza b4 baking I made Paneer Tikka Pizza this time. It really tastes divine. Though I love adding chicken in my every dishes, but it is not always fare with my vegetarian friends. So this paneer tikka pizza is dedicated to my vegetarian friends.

Here I use my Whirlpool Magicook 20g microwave which has no convection settings and is 700 watt. It has power, grill and combi mode.

Power mode is for only cooking, Grilling is for browning the food and Combi is the mode when we need to cook and grill the food at the same time. So I used powder mode to bake the pizza base and then combi mode to finish baking the pizza.
In microwave heat comes from the top only, not from the sides like OTG does.That’s why first I cooked the pizza base partially for 1 minute each side. Longer cooking can make the base hard. If you feel, the pizza base has not cooked well, then put it for additional 30 seconds. By the time it will be cooked.

Actually different microwave has different power and setting. So follow the guidelines and adjust accordingly.

I put all the details to start and finish from making the dough, how to prepare pizza base in microwave and choice of toppings. So enjoy home made pizza anytime!

Ingredients

For making dough: 3 cups refined flour/maida
1 tsp sugar
1/2 cup milk powder
1 tsp dry active yeast
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt or as required
Paneer Tikka
Some assorted veggies like onion, capsicum, tomato, olives, corn, etc.
Pizza sauce
200 gm Mozarella cheese
Pizza seasoniong

Instructions

First proof the yeast. In a glass take lukewarm water. Water should be tolerable when you touch.
Put sugar in and stir. It will help the yeast to be activated.
Sprinkle the yeast and stir. The yeast will semi dissolve in the water.
Close the glass and let it rest in room temperature for 10-15 mins.
After 10 minutes, you will find the upper surface is foamy. that means it is ready to go ahead. If not, yeast is not good. discard it.
In a large mixing bowl, put flour, milk powder and stir.
Make a deep, high-walled well in the middle of the flour.
Pour the yeast solution, 3 tsp oil and salt to taste. Mix all together with a spoon.
If the mixture is dry, put some normal water and mix.
Now knead the dough. Remember the dough will be sticky. Adjust some flour and knead until nice and smooth. I used my hand mixer with attached dough hook.
Now cover and allow it to rest for 2 hours in room temperature until you see the mixture becomes double or triple in volume. Make sure you use large bowl else the dough will overflow.
In the meantime prepare the toppings and also make the sauce to spread on the pizza. I put the link (above) of making pizza sauce.
After 2 hours, The dough will will be well risen.
Now dust some flour on the surface and knead the dough again for 8-10 minutes. It will help to release the proteins in the flour and give you a stronger, more stretchy dough.
Now divide the dough into 4 equal portions.
Take a ball. Bring the edges of the dough together at the bottom. This will give you a smooth top and pinched bottom.
Now roll it evenly using some flour.
Using finger tips stretch it little. Then roll it using rolling pin.
Prick the rolled bread from both sides so that it doesn't puff up after baking.
Brush with oil on both sides so that it doesn't get drying out.
Place this in the microwave on turn able glass top. Press the powder mode. It will show P100 means it is max temperature of the microwave. Cook on power mode each side for 1 minute. Don't cook for long time. If you feel, the pizza base has not cooked well, then put it for additional 30 seconds. By the time it will be baked.
Now place the baked pizza base on the grill rack.
Spread pizza sauce, paneer tikka, extra sliced onion, tomatoes. Over all put lot of cheese. Sprinkle some Italian seasoning on the top, optional.
Now again cook in the microwave.
Press the combi mode. time is 1 1/2 minutes.
Just allow the cheese to melt and within this time the base is also cooked completely.
Now take out the pizza. Serve with ketchup and seasoning.
