Dear Sangeetha, I will try out your dish with one of the vege. Thanks.
Glad that you tried the pizza, I always make my own pizza, with different toppings.
Thanks to Kugan for showing the way. The many times you punch back the pizza dough,
the softer your pizza will be.

Do not worry try out new recipes, I am sure every thing will be successful.
I love baking, Kugan has given many vegetarian cakes and cookies.
Thanks Sangeetha, take care, Meerra
