How to make

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Chop all vegetables and grate the mozzarella cheese. Keep them ready for assembly.
Step 2: Cook the Dosas
Heat a non-stick tawa or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil or ghee.
Pour a ladleful of dosa batter onto the tawa and spread it in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.
Cook for 1-2 minutes until the bottom begins to crisp.
Step 3: Assemble the Pizza Dosa
While the dosa is still on the tawa, spread 1-2 tablespoons of pizza sauce evenly over the surface.
Sprinkle a generous layer of grated mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Add chopped onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, boiled sweet corn, and olives evenly over the cheese.
Sprinkle a pinch of chili flakes and mixed Italian herbs for flavor.
Step 4: Cook the Pizza Dosa
Cover the dosa with a lid and let it cook for 2-3 minutes on low heat until the cheese melts and the base is crispy.
Remove from the tawa carefully and transfer to a plate.
Step 5: Serve
Cut the dosa into pizza-like slices or serve whole.
Enjoy hot with ketchup or your favorite dipping sauce
