• 1 teaspoon ghee or cooking oil

For the pizza topping

3. Rest the batter for five minutes.
4. Heat a non-stick or well-seasoned pan and lightly grease it.
5. Pour in the batter and spread it into a thick, round chilla.
6. Cook over low to medium heat until the underside is golden and the top begins to set.
7. Turn the chilla and cook the second side for about one minute.
8. Turn it again. Spread tomato sauce over the cooked surface.
9. Add onion, capsicum, tomato, sweet corn and grated cheese.
10. Sprinkle chaat masala over the topping.
11. Cover and cook over low heat for two to three minutes, or until the cheese melts.
12. Garnish with coriander, cut into pizza-style slices and serve hot.

Cooking Tip

Keep the chilla slightly thicker than a regular besan chilla. This makes it easier to hold the sauce, vegetables and cheese.
