Naan Pizza

Long time back, I added Naan crust for pizza in the soon-to-try list… and somehow, I didn’t get a chance (or I kept forgetting) to try it out in-house! Even when I received a beautiful hamper from MissionFoods, I had planned to make these pizzas… as there were 4 packets of Naan (2 with Garlic flavor and 2 with plain ones, 4 nos. in each pack)!!! And we had those with curries & pickles & dal and what not!!!!

Recently when I bought a pack of it from super-market, I couldn’t wait to grill some pizzas ;) I used all my favorite vegetables with loads of stuffed olives… One thing I would like to point out, pizza crust will not be as crisp as you get in regular ones… but it’s definitely a super-yum variation of authentic Pizza!!!

A few more combination of such pizzas are in my mind now… and will try those out soon!!! Till then, you enjoy reading this recipe…
