Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Perfect Stovetop Tawa Pizza
- For a crispier base, use a pre-heated pan and cook for a little longer.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If your pizza base is large, you might need to cook it in two batches.
- Feel free to experiment with other vegetables – mushrooms, spinach, or olives would be delicious additions.
- If you don't have a non-stick pan, use parchment paper to prevent sticking.
