Butter Paneer Naan Pizza is a super delicious paneer butter masala curry topped with homemade wholemeal naan, cheese and onions would make a mind-blowing naainzza for lunch or dinner.
Naaniza is Indian style fusion recipe of pizza which has naan for the base and a luscious creamy paneer butter masala curry as a topping along with lots of cheese. This is a totally sinful naan pizza that would make you feel just amazing.
I used paneer butter masala curry for the topping but you know the sky is the limit, use whatever gravy, dry or semidry curry you love as a topping and enjoy this classic dish in the new avatar of fusion with Italian flavours.
For the first time I tried making wholemeal wheat flour naan and it came out really well. Everyone loved it as a base for pizza. I think they would like it alone too, I mean without pizza base. Anyways whatever naan base you would like to use, go ahead and do try the naan-iza and I am sure you all will love it.
