A lazy Sunday afternoon it was and I had all the time in the world to delve into baking in the kitchen.
I had kneaded the dough for the bread in the morning and had allowed it to rest. I had been making breads
almost every weekend until I reached the art to perfection.
For the bread dough:
1. 1 cup Maida (All purpose flour)
2. 2 cups of Wheat four
3. 2-3 tablespoons of sugar
4. 1/2 cup of oil/ melted butter
5. 2 tsp of yeast dissolved in warm water
6. 1 tsp of baking powder
7. A pinch of salt
And now for the filling:
1. Chopped 8- 10 button mushrooms
2. 2 onions/Shallots
3. 15 cloves of garlic - minced
4. Salt to taste
5. Pepper - 1 tsp
6. Butter - 1 tsp
7. My special ingredient - Pizza masala flakes.

5. 2 tsp of yeast dissolved in warm water
6. 1 tsp of baking powder
7. A pinch of salt
- Dissolve sugar in about 2 - 3 tbsp of water. Sieve the flour, baking powder salt into a bowl.
- Add the sugar, yeast and oil and knead the dough until soft and smooth.
- Allow it to rest for about 2 hours or until the dough raises by double (I had it rest for more than that. Its definitely a plus)

3. 15 cloves of garlic - minced

7. My special ingredient - Pizza masala flakes.
- Melt butter in a pan and add the chopped onions and garlic and fry them till they turn transparent.
- Add salt, pepper and pizza masala flakes.
- Add the mushroom and saute for another 5 minutes or till it cooks.
- Shape a piece the dough into long oval disc and spread the filling on it. Roll the dough with the filling into a pattice.
- Place in the oven. Cook at 180 degree Centigrade for about 20-25 minutes.[My batch were there for about 22 min].
- Serve hot with tomato ketchup.
Optional: I had a few sesame seeds sprinkled over the dough before sending it into the oven to add flavor and garnishing.
That is how it looked - hot and tasted - yummy!!
