Hi, Can we make this on stove top in a tawa?
Shef, I don’t think so. Its need a very high heat.
Can I roast the puff (with home made dough of ur receipt)on a fry pan with little oil or butter as I have used frozen puff pastry dough to make puffs on fry pan or even in sandwich maker
you can try nahid. i think in a sandwich maker the recipe will work well than in a fry pan.
Hi I have microwave convection oven with highest temperature of 200°c. Can I bake at dis temp. If so how many minutes sud I preheat and bake?
yes you can bake at 200 degree celsius. preheat your oven at the same temperature of 200 degrees celsius for 15 minutes. then bake till the top is golden. i cannot give the exact time for baking as the timing changes from oven to oven. so do check after 10 to 15 minutes, as in a microwave oven the baking is quick.
hi… I wanna try this out but my microwave has only timer mode. can u please tell me how much tym should I bake them.
veg puffs cannot be made in the microwave mode of the microwave oven, which is timer based.

superb recipe,can we do this in microwave oven?..As my kids keep nagging me for pizza, I prefer to do it at home.We have stopped buying from outside,as matter of consciousness about junk food.Can u help me to do pizza with chicken pieces made at home.And how will we make pizza sauce.Usually I buy delmonte pizza sauce for doing pasta at home.Is it good?
if you have convection mode in your microwave oven, then you can bake these in the convection mode. use the same temperature as mentioned in the recipe post. for chicken, you just need to either grill or roast chicken. you can marinate the chicken with the herbs you want and then grill or roast in oven or in a pan. then use them in the recipe. i never buy any read pizza sauces as most of them have a lot of preservatives. so i prefer to make them at home.
u n ur app is amazing…
thanks jyoti.
