🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
First, prep your pizza dough. If you're making it from scratch, combine flour, yeast, salt, sugar, and water in a bowl. Knead until smooth and let it rise until doubled. Or just grab some store-bought dough – nobody's judging!
While the dough is rising (or while you're unwrapping the store-bought stuff), get started on that curry sauce. In a skillet, sauté diced onions and minced garlic in olive oil until softened. Next, stir in your favorite curry powder, tomato paste, coconut milk, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly. Give it a taste and adjust seasonings as needed – maybe a squeeze of lime or a dash of chili flakes?
Next, preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). If you're using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats – this will give you a crispier crust. Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness.
Carefully transfer the dough to your pizza stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread the curry sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Now for the fun part – toppings! Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the curry sauce. Then, add your cooked chicken or chickpeas, diced bell peppers, red onions, and cilantro. Get creative and use whatever veggies you like!
Bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing. Garnish with fresh cilantro or a drizzle of yogurt sauce (if you're feeling fancy).
Finally, slice, serve, and enjoy your spectacular curry pizza! What a rollercoaster, huh?
