Notes

  • You can use lukewarm milk instead of water  to knead the dough, in that case avoid milk powder.
  • Make sure to use good quality and unexpired yeast. If the yeast mixture doesn’t froth up, that means the yeast is not activated & do not proceed.
  • You can use your favorite veggies for toppings.
  • You can use Wheat flour instead of all purpose flour to make it little bit healthy.
