🍕 Serves: 2 | Time: 15–20 mins (including baking)

Ingredients

• Pizza base (homemade or store-bought)

• 1 tsp CURRYiT Garlic Paste

• ½ small onion, finely chopped

• ¾ cup CURRYiT Tomato Puree

• ¼ tsp red chilli powder

• Salt to taste

• 1–2 cups grated cheese (mozzarella recommended)

• Boiled corn

• 1 tsp oregano/mixed herbs

• Chilli flakes

Optional toppings for flavour boost:

• Thin onion rings

• Bell peppers

• Olives

• A drizzle of olive oil

Step-by-Step: How to Make Pizza Sauce at Home

1. Make the Quick Pizza Sauce

In a small pan, heat a teaspoon of oil and sauté CURRYiT Garlic Paste along with the chopped onions.
Let the onions soften and turn slightly golden — this builds the base flavour.

Add CURRYiT Tomato Puree, red chilli powder, and salt. Stir well.
Simmer for 4–6 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes rich and glossy.
Turn off the flame and allow it to cool slightly.

This becomes your fresh, homemade pizza sauce - aromatic, tangy, and perfectly balanced.

2. Assemble Your Pizza

Spread a generous layer of the sauce evenly over the pizza base.
Top it with boiled corn and a mountain of grated mozzarella cheese.
Feel free to add onions, bell peppers, olives or anything you love.

3. Bake to Cheesy Perfection

Place the pizza in the microwave/OTG and bake until the cheese melts and turns bubbly.
Every appliance varies, so keep an eye on your pizza - you will know it’s done when the edges crisp up slightly.

4. Finish With Seasonings

Let the pizza rest for 2 minutes (this helps the cheese settle).
Sprinkle oregano and chilli flakes on top.
Slice and serve hot - ideally with a cold drink in hand.
