Butter naan recipe
Star ingredient:All purpose flour
Time:10+30+20 minutes
Yield:6
Here I have prepared naan.leavened by yeast,you can also prepare it by replacing yeast with baking powder and curd,but I am yet to try that.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
2 teaspoons oil
1 teaspoon sugar
Salt
2 cups lukewarm water
Method:
1.Dissolve sugar in luke warm water and sprinkle yeast over it.Let it sit for 10 minutes for yeast to go live.
2.Now take flour,salt and oil.Mix well.Add the fermented water and form a loose dough.Do not over knead it.(Ref picture)
3.After 30 minutes the dough should have doubled.(but mine double up that much as the quality of yeast was not very good).4.Now punch the dough back and take a small orange sized ball,roll it over adding flour as when required.Roll as an elongated circle as seen in the picture.
5.Fry on the tava from both sides with butter till chars appear.
6.Serve hot with any gravy of choice.
Notes:1.Another method of doing this is,heat a thick cast iron tava,put a thick kadai reversed on it,fry the rolled naan over it on one side and fry the next side directly over the flame.
2.You can grill the naan in the oven also.
