Naan
Naan
2 cups white or wholemeal flour
1 tsp yeast
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1/4 cup plain yoghurt
1 Tbs oil
dissolve sugar in 1/4 cup warm water (not hot), mix in yeast and leave until it bubbles. Combine flour and salt in a big bowl and then add the yeasty water and yoghurt. Knead for 5 or ten minutes - in the bowl or on a board. You may have to sprinkle with a little flour to stop it sticking. Pour a little oil over the dough and turn over so it is all coated with oil, cover the bowl with a clean tea towel and leave in a warm place until doubled in size. Divide dough into 8 equal pieces and pat into round flat discs. Cook on a hot frying pan with a tiny amount of oil - just enough to stop them sticking - a minute or two each side.

I'm of the opinion that you can't have a curry without a bit of naan! This recipe is different to the one I have but looks really easy, so next time I'm making curry I'll give it a try.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for your lovely comment on my blog & recommending the Moosewood cookbooks; I've just spent a fair portion of the afternoon looking at them online! There is quite the selection! I'm particularly interested in the Kitchen Garden issue and have added it to my (ever increasing) wishlist. :)
