Naan

Naan :
    It is a flat Indian bread. It is soft and fluffy. Great for party or special occasion. Kids love it.

Ingredients :
All purpose flour - 3 cup

Yeast - 1.5 tsp

Sugar - 1 tsp

Salt - 1 tsp

Yogurt - 2 Tbsp

Oil - 2 Tbsp

Milk - 1/2 cup
Butter - 1/2 stick ( for applying on the naan )
Baking soda a pinch

Method :

1. In a 1/2 cup Luke warm water, add yeast. Add sugar, salt and let it sit for 10 minutes.

2. It will be foamy as shown  in the 2nd picture.

3. In a bowl, add maida, baking soda, yogurt, oil, milk.

4. Add fermented yeast and mix well to form a soft dough. Don't worry even if it is sticky.

     Add some oil on top.

5. Close it with lid and let it ferment in warm place for 3 to 4 hours.

6. The picture above shows how it is fermented after 4 hours.

7. Only if it is fermented like this you will get good naan.

8. Make balls out of it and roll it to long triangle.

9. You can bake it in oven for 3 minutes or cook it in stove top.

10. Cooking it in stove is soft and it stayed soft for long time. So I prefer stove top Naan.

11. Cook on both side.

12. Apply butter on both sides.

13. If you want garlic naan, chop garlic and coriander leaves, put in the rolled dough before cooking.

14. Then cook it on both sides and apply butter. 

Anything home made is good.

Enjoy the joy of cooking.
