Recipe for a Simple No-Fuss Khakra Pizza

Breakfast time is always “Running like a Headless Chicken” Time…There’s absolutely No time to even Think, leave alone making something Creative. But, when there’s previous Night’s Leftovers, it gives me some time to allow my Creative juices to flow and sometimes overflow! Haha

Since there were leftover Red Spinach Chapatis(recipe link given below), I decided to crisp it up on a Pan, smear some Pizza sauce and add some Cheese and enjoy a simple yet exciting No Fuss Khakra Pizza! So Good! Trust me when I say this, your bacchus(kids) will go crazy over this breaky…and so will you!

Khakra is a popular Gujrathi snack. It is prepared by frying thin crepes of dough until Crisp. They are round like Chapatis but they are Crunchy like fryums. So, whenever I would make chapatis that would turn out a little hard, My Mum and the other elders would tease me saying "Oh God! Today's chapatis are like Khakra" hahaha ,,,SAVAGE! Hence, I decided to call this "KHAKRA PIZZA"

And Yes! I am a Pizza L.O.V.E.R just incase you weren't aware….. A Freak if you may call me…

So here’s What and How I Made it…

Ingredients

4 Leftover Chapatis
4 Slices of Cheddar Cheese or Cheddar Cheese cube(grated) or Mozzarella Cheese(grated)
Pizza Sauce as per your preference(you can also use Tomato Ketchup if you don’t have Pizza sauce)
Garlic Butter(optional)
Dried Oregano flakes(optional)

Instructions

Heat a Pan on Medium High Heat, Add the Chapati onto the Pan(You can add any kind of Chapati or Paratha that you have left over)
Flip it over, once it turns crispy, smear some Garlic butter(optional) and let the other side cook until crispy. It should become crispy like a Khakra/Papad
Note: It will take around 5-7 minutes on each side to turn crispy
Once done, Transfer the Khakra it into a Microwave friendly plate(if using a Micro) or into a Baking tray(if using an OTG), smear some Pizza Sauce and Spread Cheese all across the Khakra
Cover it and heat it in the Microwave oven for 30 seconds or until the Cheese melts
Note: if using an OTG, pre heat the oven at 220 degrees celcius for 10 minutes, turn off the oven and tuck the Khakra Pizza into the Hot oven. It just requires heat for the cheese to Melt
Note: if you do not have an OTG or a Microwave oven, you can heat the khakra on a pan on medium heat, but do not forget to cover it. Covering it with a lid will create an oven like atmosphere which will help the Cheese to melt with the heat
Once the Cheese Melts, transfer the Khakra Pizza on the Chopping Board
Cut the khakra into 4 equal parts, sprinkle some dried Oregano flakes and enjoy these crispy Pizzas nice and Hot either for Breakfast or Evening Tea
Note: You can add any toppings of your choice and make it more colourful and creative if you like!
