About this recipe
This tawa bread pizza is the fastest way to enjoy a pizza-like snack using plain bread and a pan. No oven, no complicated prep — perfect for school tiffin, evening cravings or last-minute guests.
🥖 Ingredients
- 2 slices bread (white or brown)
- 2 tbsp pizza sauce or tomato ketchup
- ¼–½ cup grated mozzarella or processed cheese
- 2 tbsp mixed chopped vegetables (capsicum, onion, tomato, corn)
- ¼ tsp oregano or mixed Italian herbs
- a pinch of red chilli flakes (optional)
- 1 tsp butter or oil for toasting
👨🍳 Method (Step-by-Step)
- Toast one side: Heat the tawa on medium. Spread butter on one side of each bread slice and toast that side lightly on the pan (30–40 seconds) until golden.
- Flip & sauce: Flip the bread. On the non-toasted side, spread pizza sauce (or ketchup) evenly.
- Add toppings: Sprinkle chopped veggies over the sauce and cover generously with grated cheese.
- Cover & melt: Cover the pan with a lid and cook on low heat for 1–2 minutes, until the cheese melts. Keep flame low to avoid burning.
- Finish & serve: Remove the lid, sprinkle oregano and chilli flakes, cut into halves and serve hot with extra sauce.
