Notes

You can as well make it with caramelized onions. It gives extra sweetness to the zucchini part of the pizza. Just stir 1/2 sliced red onion, 2 tbsp olive oil and  2 tsp of brown sugar for few minutes until the red onion is soft.  Then add on the dough before you top it with the zucchini. I used little of lard as well for better taste. But it is optional.
