This bread is delicious. If you use fast rising yeast, it only needs 20 min. to rise. Tonight I made it with Green Chicken Curry (which will be posted as well). I double this recipe because it is so good.
You will need:
1/2 cup warm water
2 tsp. active dry yeast
1 tsp. sugar
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for rolling
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup canola oil
1/3 cup greek fat free plain yogurt
1 large egg
olive oil for cooking (you can use butter if you prefer)
1/2 cup warm water
2 tsp. active dry yeast
1 tsp. sugar
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for rolling
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup canola oil
1/3 cup greek fat free plain yogurt
1 large egg
olive oil for cooking (you can use butter if you prefer)
In a large bowl, stir together the water, yeast and sugar and let stand for 5 minutes, until foamy.
Stir in the flour, salt, oil, yogurt and egg and stir, then knead until you have a soft, pliable dough. Cover with a tea towel and let rise until doubled in size; about an hour.
Divide the dough into 6-8 pieces and on a lightly floured surface, roll out each piece into a thin circle or oval.
Cook each naan in a nice hot skillet drizzled with oil (just a teeny tiny bit–you’re not frying it) until blistered and cooked, flipping as necessary. (When the surface has big blisters and is golden on the bottom, flip it over and cook until golden on the other side.
Makes about 8 naan.

I was just looking for a recipe for naan but wasn't sure which to try. Now I know :)
ReplyDeleteI've never even heard of it. What does it taste like?
ReplyDeleteIt's kind of like a tortilla, but a little thicker. And it's tasty. (: It's Indian.
