Rice Flour Crust (Orotti) is a traditional dish of Kerala, India. Orotti is kind of thick and you can even call them fat bread. To bring a twist to the Pizza base I used the Orotti as the Pizza base. Rice flour crust is really crispy and crunchy to taste.

As a topping I have used Aloo (Potato) Masala with a tangy Indian flavor.
