Upside down Pizza Chaat

The first time I had a pizza chaat was in India when I was a kid. I was surprised how good this combination tastes. Since the upside down pastry has been trending all over, I wanted to try out the method to make these pizzas and it was a huge success. The puff pastry turnsout flakey and crispy and the topping brings it all together. Serve this for Diwali, kitty parties, thanksgiving parties, Christmas parties or anytime you craving for something yummy.
