Recipe for Pressure Cooker Pizza without yeast, and cheese

  • Let’s make the pizza dough first. In a bowl, take 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons maida. To this, add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon sugar and mix well.
  • Add 2 teaspoons ghee, and 2 1/2 tablespoons yoghurt and mix.
  • Start kneading and make smooth dough. Add about 1/2 tablespoon of water, if needed.
  • Cover and let the dough rest for about an hour.
  • Now, its time to make the red pizza sauce.
  • In a pan, add roughly chopped onions and tomato, ginger and garlic cloves along with 1/2 cup water.
  • Cover and cook for about 5-7 minutes.
  • Once cooled, grind and make a paste.
  • In a pan, heat 2 tablespoons oil and add little of the ground mixture. Add 1/2 teaspoon chilli powder and mix.
  • Add in the rest of the paste + 1/2 cup water used to rinse the mixer jar.
  • Add 1/2 teaspoon sugar and cook until the sauce thickens. Set aside.
  • Now its time to make the white sauce.
  • In a pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons maida. Mix well.
  • Add 1/2 cup milk and cook until you get sauce consistency. Set aside.
  • If the time is up, take the pizza dough and knead for a minute. Roll for about the size of a medium pizza.
  • Place it in a pizza pan or a plate that you can use to bake.
  • Spread the red sauce over the pizza base evenly and generously.
  • Over the red sauce, spread the white sauce.
  • Place the veggies of your choice over the white sauce. Sprinkle some chilli flakes.
  • Pour 2 cups water in a wide bottomed pressure cooker. Place a vessel in water and place the pizza pan/plate over the vessel.
  • Put some butter in few places along the sides of the pizza pan.
  • Close the cooker without gasket and whistle on the lid and cook in low flame (sim) for 35-40 mins.
  • Open the cooker, wait for two mins and enjoy your pizza!
