Naan:
This recipe makes the best naan I have tasted outside of an Indian restaurant. I can't make enough of it for my family. I serve it with shish kabobs, but I think they would eat it plain.
INGREDIENTS
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1/4 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1 egg, beaten
2 teaspoons salt
4 1/2 cups bread flour
2 teaspoons minced garlic (optional)
1/4 cup butter, melted
DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand about 10 minutes, until frothy. Stir in sugar, milk, egg, salt, and enough flour to make a soft dough. Knead for 6 to 8 minutes on a lightly floured surface, or until smooth. Place dough in a well oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and set aside to rise. Let it rise 1 hour, until the dough has doubled in volume.
Punch down dough, and knead in garlic. Pinch off small handfuls of dough about the size of a golf ball. Roll into balls, and place on a tray. Cover with a towel, and allow to rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
During the second rising, preheat grill to high heat.
At grill side, roll one ball of dough out into a thin circle. Lightly oil grill. Place dough on grill, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until puffy and lightly browned. Brush uncooked side with butter, and turn over. Brush cooked side with butter, and cook until browned, another 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from grill, and continue the process until all the naan has been prepared.

Naan In The Oven

Answer 3

Here is how to make yummy naan:

Ingredients: Oven Temp: 200 C - 400 F

4 cups refined flour
1 1/4 cups yoghurt
1 tsp baking soda
salt to taste
onion seeds for garnish



Method: Mix together the flour, salt and baking soda. Knead into a soft, smooth dough using as much yoghurt as required.

Cover with a damp cloth and leave to rise in a warm, draught-free place, till double in volume. If in a hurry, place the container in a larger container of hot water. The time taken for the dough to rise varies according to the weather - about 3 hours in summer and 7 hours in winter.

Punch the dough and leave to rise again. This time it will take much less time.

Break the dough into pieces of desirable size and smooth into rounds. Cover with a damp cloth and keep for at least 15 minutes.

Roll the balls into flat ovals or rounds. You can also flatten them by slapping them between your palm - as experts do, stretching and pulling with your hands when required.

Smear the surface with water and sprinkle with onion seeds. Grease a baking tray and bake the naans in a pre-heated oven for about 5 minutes. Better still is to grill them, if your grill has elements both above and below.

If you have a tandoor, wet one side of the naan with water and stick it to the walls of the tandoor. You can also stick it to a hot griddle and turn the griddle upside down over the flame. The naan will fall off when cooked.

Brush the hot naan with butter or ghee and serve.
