- Cut the paneer into small cubes and add them to the bowl. Add bell pepper cubes to the bowl, followed by onion slices.
- Mix lightly and coat the veggie pieces with the marinade. Let it rest for 20-30 minutes. You can also place it in the fridge.
To assemble the pizza
- If using frozen samosa, cook it as per the instruction on the packet. Then roughly chop or smash them.
- For the pizza sauce, you can either make it from scratch, use a store-bought one, or even use makhani sauce.
- Thaw the garlic naan bread first. Then cook the naan in a tawa/skillet. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the cooked naan over it.
- Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the garlic naan bread. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese and basil leaves over the naan.
- Add the marinated veggies over it. Spread evenly. Now evenly spread the broken samosa all over the garlic naan bread.
- Place mozzarella pearls over it. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the pizza for 15-20 minutes or till the cheese melts. Then carefully take it out.
- Sprinkle Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes over the desi naan pizza. Garnish with some chopped cilantro as well if you wish to. Cut and serve immediately.
