Cheese Burst Pizza (Domino's Style)



Pizzas doesn't need any introductions. Most of us like it rather just crazy about it. Its special as its loaded with cheese n in cheese burst......what to say???. We have different choices for the pizzas, some like thin crust some like deep pan, some love cheese bursts. I m in the last category, just love cheese burst pizza. Cheese oozing out from every where...yummy!!!!! As pizzas are all time favorites at the same time quite heavy on our pockets even. Trust me guys if we are preparing them at home, really cost is cut down a lot. Therefore I tried to imitate the Dominos recipe. I won't say that its exactly same.....but yes far better. Just try it out, I am sure you will love it :). So here i have the a recipe for you all of a cheese burst pizza.

I have already posted the recipe for the Pizza dough and Homemade pizza sauce. Please click on the links for the detailed recipes.

Ingredients (For Medium size pizza)
  • Pizza dough (made from 1 cup of Plain flour)
  • Cheese : 250 grams (I used mature cheddar)
  • Pizza sauce : 3-4 tbsps
  • Mixed herbs : 1-1/2 tsp
  • Chili flakes : 1-1/2 tsp
  • Salt : 1/4 tsp
  • Black pepper : 1/4 tsp
  • Olive oil/Veg oil : 1 tbsp
Toppings :
  • Coloured bell peppers
  • Mushrooms
  • Sweetcorn/babycorns
  • Tomatoes
  • Onions
Note : There is no hard & fast rule for the toppings, sauce, seasonings or the cheese. The veggies and their quantities totally depend on the personal preferences.  
Cheese variety is up to your preference.

Method 
  • Preheat the oven at 210 degree Celsius.
  • Divide the dough into two equal parts
  • Roll both the parts in chapatti shapes and as per the size of the pan. 
  • Place one of the rolled sheet over the pizza tray. (Grease the tray with some olive oil) and dust it with some plain flour or corn meal)
  • Now spread half of the cheese (or as per the choice) over the sheet leaving thinly the edges.
  • Apply little water over the edges with the help of a finger and the place the other sheet over the top and seal it properly.
  • Prick the sheet with a fork (as shown in the picture)
  • Apply pizza sauce generously over the top and add veggies. Garnish with cheese, herbs, chilli flakes and salt & pepper.
  • Keep it in the oven for 25-30 minutes on the middle rack. If you like the crust to be nice golden brown then you can keep it on broil for 1-1/2 minutes, without moving away from the oven. Enjoy hot!!!! 

Note : Below pictures here are just to give a rough idea. Quantity of the ingredients is totally different.
