That sounds delicious! Combining traditional Tandoori bread with homemade cheese and pizza is a great idea. Here's how you can make each component:

Traditional Tandoori Bread
This bread is typically made in a Tandoor, a clay oven. However, you can also make it in a regular oven or on a stovetop.

Ingredients:

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 tbsp oil
1/2 cup warm water (as needed)
1 tsp nigella seeds (optional)
Butter or ghee for brushing
Instructions:

Prepare the Dough:

Mix flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl.
Add yogurt and oil, mixing until combined.
Gradually add warm water, kneading until a soft dough forms. The dough should be smooth and slightly sticky.
Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 1-2 hours.

For the oven: Place the rolled-out dough on a baking sheet and bake for about 5-7 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.
For the stovetop: Cook on a hot griddle until bubbles appear, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown. Brush with butter or ghee.
Homemade Cheese
Making cheese at home is surprisingly simple.

Ingredients:

1 liter of whole milk
2-3 tbsp lemon juice or white vinegar
1/4 tsp salt
Instructions:

Heat the Milk:

Pour milk into a large pot and heat over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
Add Acid:

Add lemon juice or vinegar slowly, stirring gently. The milk will start to curdle, forming curds and whey.
Strain the Curds:

Once fully curdled, remove from heat and let it sit for a few minutes.
Strain through a cheesecloth or a fine-mesh sieve. Gather the curds into the cheesecloth and squeeze out excess whey.
Form the Cheese:

Add salt to the curds, mix, and then shape it into a block. Let it sit under a weight to press out more whey if you want firmer cheese.
Refrigerate the cheese until ready to use.
Homemade Pizza
Now let's bring it all together with a simple pizza.

Ingredients:

Tandoori bread (as the base)
Homemade cheese (as a topping)
Tomato sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Your favorite toppings (e.g., sliced tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, olives, etc.)
Fresh basil or oregano
Olive oil
Instructions:

Prepare the Base:

Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
Place the Tandoori bread on a baking sheet.
Assemble the Pizza:

Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce over the bread.
Sprinkle the homemade cheese over the sauce.
Add your desired toppings.
Bake the Pizza:

Drizzle with olive oil and bake for about 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil or oregano before serving.
Enjoy your homemade Tandoori bread pizza with fresh cheese!
