\"Layered
\nCrispy, Layered Pizza with Chapatis<\/small><\/center><\/p>\n

When it’s this easy to make flavorful, delicious pizza at home, I can only imagine restaurants suffer. Why? This homemade crisp pizza tastes as good or better as any thin crust pizza I have ever had in a restaurant. <\/p>\n

I started with few leftover chapatis of yesterday. I added the tomato chutney layer and topped with red beans and cheese. Baked in an oven for few minutes, the outcome was a scrumptious looking, saliva inducing meal. An impressively, easy way to satiate the pizza cravings without doing the back-breaking pizza labor.<\/p>\n

\"Red
\nRed Beans (Adzuki, Chori), Chutney Ingredients, Chapatis and Cheese ~ Ingredients for Chapati Bake<\/small><\/center><\/p>\n

Recipe:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Pressure cook: One cup red beans<\/a> (soaked in water overnight beforehand) to tender or use the canned red beans. <\/p>\n

2. Prepare chutney: In a skillet, add oil and cook coarsely chopped one onion, two tomatoes, three cloves of garlic and four chillies to brown. Cool, then add salt and blend to coarse puree. <\/p>\n

3. Take fresh or leftover chapatis, about 4 to 6. Cut each chapati to 4 wedge-shaped pieces of equal size.<\/p>\n

4. Slice to thin strips or grate cheese. I used Monterey Jack cheese in this recipe – About half cup. <\/p>\n

Before Meal Time: <\/strong><\/p>\n

Preheat the oven to 400°F. <\/p>\n

In an iron skillet or in an ovenproof dish:
\nFirst, place the chapati pieces, then on top, add and spread tomato chutney to a thin layer. Sprinkle some red beans, cheese and cilantro. Continue until the last chapati, ending with a layer of the chutney, beans and cheese on top. Place the skillet in the oven and bake at 400°F for about 10-15 minutes, until the cheese melts and chapatis start to brown. Remove, slice and serve.<\/p>\n

The whole combination of baked chapatis, spicy tomato chutney, red beans and cheese came out very well and tasted real good.<\/p>\n
