Paneer Tikka Pizza

The viral India-Italy fusion — a pizza with paneer tikka (cumin-spiced marinated cottage cheese) as the topping, on a base of green mint-coriander chutney or tandoori-spiced tomato sauce, finished with red onion, bell peppers, mozzarella and a drizzle of tamarind chutney and Kewpie-style mayo. Absolutely addictive.

Method

  1. Paneer tikka: marinate paneer cubes in yoghurt and spices for 30 minutes. Grill or pan-fry until charred in spots.

    About 5 min

  2. Stretch pizza dough to a 30 cm round. Preheat oven as high as it goes with a baking stone or tray inside.

    About 14 min

  3. Spread green chutney over the base. Scatter mozzarella, red onion, peppers and cherry tomatoes.

    About 14 min

  4. Add the paneer tikka pieces on top. Bake 10–12 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

    About 14 min

  5. Drizzle with tamarind chutney. Sprinkle chaat masala and fresh coriander. Serve immediately — the sweet-tangy-spicy toppings elevate it beyond any regular pizza.
