Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Roasted Vegetable Topping
To create the roasted vegetable topping, start by heating a bit of butter in a broad skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped green bell pepper (capsicum) to the pan and sauté it for a few minutes until it softens and releases its fragrance.
Next, add the blanched and chopped tomatoes to the pan. Stir them gently with the capsicum. Follow this with the steamed sweet corn, and cook the mixture for a few more minutes, allowing the corn to absorb the flavors and get well coated with the bell pepper and tomato. Sprinkle in the pizza seasoning and red chilli flakes, stirring to combine all the ingredients. Finally, add the freshly chopped basil leaves, give everything a final toss, and turn off the heat.
Step 2: Assemble the Khakhra Pizza
Once the roasted vegetable topping is ready, it’s time to assemble your Khakhra pizza. Start by placing one of the homemade khakras on a flat serving plate.
Spread a generous tablespoon of Britannia Peppy Pizza Cheese Spread onto the khakhra. This creamy and flavorful cheese spread will serve as the perfect base for your vegetable topping, enhancing the pizza’s taste with its rich, tangy flavor.
Step 3: Add the Topping and Serve
Now, top the khakhra with the roasted vegetable mixture. Evenly distribute the capsicum, tomato, sweet corn, and basil topping over the cheese spread for a colorful and delicious finish.
Once assembled, your Khakhra Pizza with Cheese Spread & Roasted Vegetables is ready to serve. The combination of crunchy khakra and cheesy goodness, along with the savory, slightly spicy vegetables, makes for an irresistible snack.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this Khakhra Pizza as a light snack for tea time, as a quick after-school bite for kids, or as a unique appetizer alongside a cup of Masala Chai or Espresso Coffee. It’s a perfect fusion snack that pairs well with hot beverages and is sure to be loved by all age groups!
