What is the recipe for Pizza Pocket?

Are you pizza-holics? Well, I’m one of those.

We have a favorite pizza delivery place, which happens to be very far.… I really do make Pocket pizza, a new version of Pizza at home. No need to wait for this homemade dough to rise.

Main Ingredients for Dough:

Refined flour (Maida) - 2 cup
Cooking oil - 2 tbsp
Dry active yeast - 1 tsp
Sugar - 1 Tsp
Salt -1/2 Tsp

For stuffing:

Mozzarella cheese - Grated
Pizza sauce - 1/4 cup
Beans - 1/4 cup (finely chopped)
Capsicum - 1 (sliced thinly lengthwise)
Onion - 1/2 cup (Finely chopped)
Sweet corn - 1/4 cup
Cabbage - 1/2 cup
Black pepper powder - 1/4 tsp
Salt - 1/4 Tsp
Olive oil - 1 Tsp

Method:

• Take refined flour in a big bowl and Mix all ingredients really well and with help of lukewarm water knead a soft dough.
• Keep kneading the dough for 5-6 minutes till it gets smooth and supple. For kneading this much quantity of dough almost 3/4 cup of water is required.
• Add oil in dough, cover and keep it aside for 2-3 hours in a warm place to rest. The dough will puff up and reach twice its current size. Now lubricate the dough slightly again. Dough for making pizza pack is ready. Make 3-4 lumps from the dough.
• Make stuffing - Preheat oil in a pan and place onion. Cook it for one minute.
• Add french beans to it and saute for 1 minute. Now add corn, capsicum, cabbage, black pepper and salt into it and saute for 1 minute. Vegetables are cooked aptly, turn off the flame.
• Take one lump and roll giving it a round shape. Sprinkle some flour over the rolling board and roll out in 1/4 cm thick sheet.
• Spread some pizza sauce over it thinly and evenly. Now spread some stuffing on half the side of the pizza and grate some mozzarella cheese over it. Bringing the second half over the stuffing. Close it and press it on corners so that stuffing doesn't spill out.
• Place it on a baking tray and similarly prepare pizza pack with other two dough balls. Now cover the pizza pack for 1/2 hour and keep it aside. After this bake them. (Preheat oven to 180-degree centigrade.)
• Place the pizza tray in the oven and set the oven for 10 minutes on 180-degree centigrade. Check pizza after 10 minutes. Flip the pizza pack and bake for another 5 minutes at the same temperature. Check again. Pizza pack is now ready.
• You can also deep fry the pizza pocket in medium hot oil.

Suggestion:

If you are adding active dry yeast, then take it in a separate bowl with 2-3 tbsp water and sugar. Soak it for 10 minutes. You'll see the formation of bubbles in water. Now add this water in flour and knead.
