Spread the love

Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 75 ml milk
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 10 g yeast
  • 250 g flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp oil (sunflower oil)
  • 80 g yogurt (0.1% fat)
  • 1 egg(s) (size M)
  • Flour for the work surface

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Total time approx. 1 hour 30 minutes

Indian bread

Heat the milk and dissolve the sugar and yeast in it. Let the mixture rest for 15 minutes. In the meantime, sift the flour, add the baking powder, and salt. Gradually stir in the milk-yeast mixture, oil, yogurt, and egg, and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. After the resting time, knead the dough again and divide it into 4 portions. First, roll each portion out into a teardrop shape on a floured surface. The naan should be about 1 cm thick. Immediately place the naan in the hot oven and bake for about 8 minutes. Pierce any large bubbles. Wrap the finished naan in a napkin, keep it warm, and repeat with the other pieces of dough. I find this naan works particularly well on a pizza stone. Naan is served as a side dish with curry, but it also tastes great with dips or butter.
