Easy Naan

Naan is a type of flat bread and almost resembles a pitta. It is usually eaten in Northern India as wheat grows in abundance in this region. Naan is usually made out of white flour. It is usually baked in a clay oven called the tandoor. But as we do not have a tandoor at home, one can make it on a hot griddle or tava at home. Naan can be served with any curry.

Ingredients:

1. 1 kg cake flour or white bread flour
2. 8 teaspoon sugar
3. 1 cup milk
4. 5 gms yeast
5. 1 egg
6. 1 cup plain yogurt
7. salt to taste

Method:

• Mix all the ingredients into a pliable dough.
• Cover it with a damp cloth and keep it aside for four hours to rise.
• Make small balls and roll it out (not too thin) into the shape of a triangle
• Heat the griddle and apply a little butter
• Put the rolled out naan onto the griddle and fry on both sides.
