How to make tawa pizza with step by step images

Now divide the dough into equal portions. I made 5 inch pan pizza hence divided the dough accordingly. Now take one piece of dough ball flatten it into small circle/ medium circle depending on the size of the pan. Do not roll it thin. Now using a fork make holes on the flattened dough, this prevents in puffing of the dough when cooking.
Heat a tawa and place the rolled pizza dough. Put the flame to low and cover it with a lid. Cook for 1 minute, then flip it gently.
Now cover the flipped pizza base with lid again and cook for 1 minute in low flame. When done flip the pizza base to the front side and add tomato sauce/ pizza sauce. Now spread a tablespoon sauce over the pizza base. I used around 1 tbsp sauce for 5 inch pizza, size of palm. Now add mozzarella cheese.
Now cook the pizza in low flame with lid on. It Should take around 2 minutes. When cheese has melted and when pizza looks done remove from oven and sprinkle chili flakes and oregano before serving! Repeat the process till all the dough is complete.
