• 1 Tbsp dry active yeast
• 3 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp sugar

for the White Sauce:

• 2 ½ Tbsp All Purpose flour Plain flour or Maida
• ¾ cup milk
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper

for Cabbage Topping:

• 3 cup sliced cabbage
• ½ thinly sliced red bell pepper
• 2 Tbsp chopped cilantro Green coriander
• 2 chopped green chilies

Instructions

Making the Dough:

• Dissolve yeast in lukewarm water and let it sit for about 20 minutes or until the yeast becomes frothy.
• Add sugar, salt and oil to the flour and mix well.
• Add the yeast water and make into a dough. The dough should be soft and a little sticky. Add more water if needed.
• Cover the dough and let it sit for about four hours. The dough should be double in volume.
• Knead the dough well using a little dry flour.

Making White Sauce:

• Heat the oil in a small heavy saucepan over low-medium heat.
• Add the flour and cook until the flour changes into a light brown color.
• Slowly add the milk, stirring constantly. Continue cooking slowly until it is smooth and thick. Add the salt and black pepper.
• Making Cabbage Topping:
• Mix the cabbage, bell pepper, cilantro, and green chilies with the white sauce.

Making the Pizza:

• Pre-heat the oven to 500 degrees, placing a pizza stone inside for about 30 minutes so the pizza stone will be hot.
• Divide the dough in to two equal parts and roll into two 8 inch diameter pizzas.
• Place over greased cookie sheets. Put about a half teaspoon of olive oil over the pizza. Evenly spread the cabbage mixture onto the pizza.
• Slide the cookie sheet on the pizza stone and let it cook for about five minutes.
• To make a crispy pizza crust, remove the pizza from the cookie sheet and place over the pizza stone.
• Let it cook for about 7 minutes, or until the edges are golden-brown.
