• Grated mozzarella cheese - 1 cup
• Egg - 1 large
• Spinach - 200 grams (blanched and chopped)
• Chaat masala - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, grated mozzarella cheese, egg, salt, cumin powder, and olive oil to form a dough.
3. Spread the dough onto a parchment-lined baking tray, forming a round pizza base about 1/2 inch thick.
4. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
5. While the crust is baking, prepare the topping by mixing blanched spinach, chaat masala, chopped red onion, diced tomato, and chopped green chilies (if using) in a bowl.
6. Once the crust is done, remove it from the oven and spread a layer of yogurt over it.
7. Top the yogurt layer with the spinach mixture evenly, then drizzle tamarind chutney on top.
8. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
9. Remove the pizza, garnish with fresh coriander, and let it cool for a minute before slicing and serving.
