Naan Bread - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 tsp active dry yeast
1 tsp sugar
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp yogurt
4 tbsp ghee, melted
2 tsp nigella seeds
Preparation
-
Whisk 2/3 cup warm water, yeast and sugar in small bowl until yeast dissolves, cover. Let stand in warm place about 10 mins or until mixture is frothy.
Sift flour and salt into large bowl. Add yeast mixture, yogurt and half of the ghee; mix to a soft dough. Knead dough on floured surface about 5 mins or until dough is smooth and elastic. Place dough in large greased bowl; cover. Let stand in warm place 1 1/2 hours or until dough has doubled in size.
Turn dough onto floured surface; knead 5 mins or until smooth. Divide dough into six pieces. Roll each piece into an oval about 8 inches long.
Preheat the broiler on high. Line a baking pan with foil; grease foil. Cook ovals, one at a time, under broiler about 2 mins each side or until puffed and just browned. Brush naan with a little of the remaining ghee; sprinkle with a little of the nigella seeds. Broil a further 30 seconds. Keep warm while cooking remaining naan.
