I sue my rolling pistle to make the base of the pizza with the dough. Then I heat my frying pan on gas cooker then I make sure there is no water in the frying pan then I place my pizza base and fry one side first.

Then spread my tomatoes sauce on the pizza base then add my cheese, chicken and the vegetables then allowed it to fried well.for like 5 minutes with a very low temperature.

And now my frying pizza is ready for consumption.

Then the pizza I bake but still with cooking gas but without oil.

Then apply my tomatoes paste and after that spread cheese pizza on it

Then spread the chicken chops and all the vegetable then I cover the pot and allow it to bake well for like 30 minutes with low temperature.
