Cooking instructions
* Step 1
For the pizza spread
Cut tomatoes roughly and make puree in a food processor.
* Step 2
I added a small piece of beetroot at the time of blending to enhance the colour.
* Step 3
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan, add in chopped onion and saute until translucent.
* Step 4
Next add in ginger garlic paste and saute for few more seconds.
* Step 5
Add in tomato puree. Also add in chilli powder, turmeric powder, garam masala powder, oregano, salt and sugar.
* Step 6
Stir to mix well, add in 1/2 cup of water and cook in medium heat for about 10-12 minutes.
* Step 7
When the mixture comes to a saucy consistency remove from heat.Set aside.
* Step 8
For the crust
Cut Cauliflower in florets.Keep aside few florets to use as topping.
* Step 9
Wash properly and pulse in a food processor to make crumbs.You can use grater also to make cauliflower crumbs.
* Step 10
Place the crumbs to a microwave safe bowl and cook in microwave for 6 minutes.
* Step 11
Let the crumbs cool down.
Take out, transfer them to a muslin cloth and squeeze out the juice to make crumbs dry.
* Step 12
Place the squeezed out crumbs to a mixing bowl.
* Step 13
Add in besan, cheese salt, chilli flakes and dry herb.Besan and cheese will help to bind everything together.
* Step 14
Mix together with your hand and make a rough dough. You need not add water to make the dough.
* Step 15
Preheat oven at 200 degree C for 10 minutes.
* Step 16
Take a pizza tray of at least 9"diameter (you can use any baking tray, line with baking paper if needed).
Place the cauliflower dough to the pizza tray, spread with your fingers to make a thin round shape disk. Try to make it even from all sides.
* Step 17
Bake it in preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until light golden brown from the sides and top.
* Step 18
Remove from oven, wait for 5 minutes before add-in the toppings.
When the crust cools down a bit, it will become crisp.
* Step 19
Cut the vegetables like capsicums, purple cabbage, cherry tomatoes in small pieces.
* Step 20
Roast some cauliflower florets with little olive oil and crushed black pepper.
* Step 21
Now spread the pizza sauce which we prepared early over the pizza crust.

Also spread roasted cauliflower florets.
* Step 25
At last sprinkle mozzarella, cheddar cheese, chilli flakes and oregano herbs.
* Step 26
Bake again in preheated oven for 10 minutes. I placed pizza tray in upper rack of the oven to avoid burning the crust from the bottom.
