Instant Pizza

I have been making my own version of an instant pizza often in the recent months.I was skeptical when I first made it but since then I have fallen for this pizza for good. The main pluses are that it takes very little time to make them and tastes just awesome.

There is only the assembly effort that is required to make this instant pizza and the idea for it dawned on me one day when I was really craving for pizza and finding a way to bypass making the pizza base from scratch.

There are many alternatives available in the market for making the pizza base - ready made pizza base, instant pizza base dough and so on - but I dislike the taste of many of them.There are also other recipes available online that include the use of  a bread slice as the base (toast pizzas) or stuffing the toppings in between burger bun and baking the pizzas. I liked the burger bun version but disliked the stuffing part.

So instead I decided to buy a burger bun, cut it into two halves and use each one as a base.


Lightly toast the bun for a minute. Then add a generous helping of tomato sauce, followed by mozzarella cheese, topped with sweet corn kernels and a sprinkle of herb mix.
Bake in the oven for 10 minus at 200 deg C and pizza ready.

Once ready the pizza base ie the burger bun will be crispy on the outside and very soft and toasty on the inside and together with the toppings it is an absolute delight to eat and the taste is on par with any authentic pizza.

I have tried many other topping choices too (mushroom,paneer,bell peppers) and all of them go well with the base.Dare not I forget to say, very inexpensive too :) .. Do try them if possible..
