Gluten-Free Pizza: Desify Pizza for Pizza Day with Badshah!

So it’s World Pizza Day and everyone is making the most of this occasion to have a deliciously cheesy and carby treat but there is one catch. You can’t participate because of your allergies! The world is unfair enough as it is and nothing should prevent you from having your very own Pizza. This is where the Gluten-Free Pizza comes in. This Pizza Day Badshah presents a quick and easy gluten-free pizza recipe with a desi twist so that you can enjoy the day to the fullest with your friends and family.

The Ultimate Gluten-Free Pizza Recipe

Before we can get into any modifications, we first need to deal with the real problem; the base. The delicious crust that acts as a delivery system for all that cheese is also the main problem for those who have a gluten intolerance. Luckily, we have the perfect recipe that is easy to make and is sure to satisfy all your cravings.

Ingredients

¾ cup warm Water
1 tbsp Sugar
1 1/2 tsp Yeast
2 cups Gluten-Free Flour Blend
1 tsp Salt
1 large Egg
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cider Vinegar

Method

Mix warm water, sugar, and yeast in a bowl and let it bloom for about 10 minutes.
Mix dry ingredients and yeast mixture together and knead together for 10 minutes until it becomes smooth.
Using oiled hands, spread the dough into a circle about 10-12 inches in diameter.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the center is set. Remove from the oven.
Spread tomato sauce or pesto on top Leave a little bit of space between the sauce and the edges.
Sprinkle on the cheeses of your choice.
Add any additional toppings and place them back in the oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and starts to turn brown.

Gluten-Free Pizza with Desi Pesto

Though pesto might seem to be an intimidating concept, the word “pesto” simply means paste in Italian so pretty much anything can be a pesto if you know how to balance the ingredients. This is why we have come up with the ultimate desi pesto for your gluten-free pizza.

On the pulse setting blend together 100 g of coriander leaves, 100 g of cheese and 100 g of cashews till they form a chunky paste. Now you have the perfect desi base for the rest of your flavors. Don’t forget to top it off with a healthy dusting of Badshah’s Chili Flakes and cheese to make a truly amazing combo.

Gluten-Free Tandoori Chicken surprise

At this point, everyone has had a tandoori chicken pizza but what if you could make your own gluten-free Tandoori Chicken Pizza at home?

All you have to do is have some leftover tandoori chicken (shop-bought works just as well) and shred it into thin strips. It’s best to use thigh pieces because chicken breast tends to dry out.

Then add a paste of 1 onion, 2 tomatoes and 3 cloves of garlic which has been cooked down to a thick paste. Add this to your pizza base, top with mozzarella cheese, bake and enjoy!

Butter Chicken Gluten-Free Pizza

This version is even simpler than the previous one because all you have to do is cook down an already made butter chicken curry.

You want to make sure to remove a lot of the moisture from your curry because gluten-free pizzas don’t respond well to excess moisture. Once the curry has thickened, place it on your pizza base, top it with a lot of cheese and you are good to go.

Conclusion

No one should feel left out on such a broad occasion as Pizza Day and we hope that our recipes will help you enjoy World Pizza Day to the fullest. For more desi twists like these, follow us on www.badshahmasala.com
