Method

  1. 1

    Begin by preheating your oven to the temperature specified on your Margherita Pizza packaging, typically around 200°C (400°F). Unwrap the pizza and prepare it for baking.

  2. 2

    In a small saucepan, gently melt the Amul Salted Butter over low heat until it's a golden, fragrant liquid. This will be our secret to an irresistible crust.

  3. 3

    Carefully brush the melted butter generously over the entire crust of the Margherita pizza. This golden coating promises a rich, crisp texture and enhanced flavor.

  4. 4

    Slide the prepared pizza onto a baking tray or directly onto the oven rack. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and molten, and the crust is beautifully golden brown.

  5. 5

    While the pizza bakes, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the vibrant Green Peas and sauté for 3-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.

  6. 6

    Season the sautéed peas with a pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, tossing gently to ensure every pea is perfectly coated and seasoned.

  7. 7

    Once the pizza emerges from the oven, allow it to rest for a minute before slicing into generous wedges. Serve immediately alongside your perfectly seasoned, tender green peas for a delightful, balanced lunch.

👩‍🍳 Chef's tip

For an extra touch of freshness, a sprinkle of fresh basil or a drizzle of balsamic glaze after baking can elevate this quick meal even further. Enjoy it with a light side salad for a complete lunch.
