Butter Naan (flat bread)

Indian "Butter Naan", is a flat bread variety. It tastes great with tandoori chicken/ other chicken dishes But some people eat the bread just like that too. But Indians usually eat it accompanied with a side dish (vegetarian/ non vegetarian). I ate this along with Tandoori chicken. You can find that recipe in my blog as well.

Butter Naan recipe:-

Ingredients:

  • All purpose flour(maida)-2 cups
  • Baking powder-1 tsp
  • Salt-1tsp
  • Sugar-1 tsp
  • Yogurt-1/4th cup
  • Grated ginger-3 tbsp
  • Coriander leaves-1/4th cup
  • Black sesame seeds-1 tbsp
  • Water for kneading
  • Butter
  • 0il-2tsp

Procedure:

1st: Take a bowl & add flour, baking soda, salt and sugar.
Then add curd, ginger paste and coriander leaves and water if required. Knead the flour by adding 2tsp of oil to make a soft and sticky dough . Cover it with a wet cloth, and keep it for 4-5hrs.


2nd: Take a handful of dough and apply dry flour on a wooden board and roll it into a ball. Flatten it out by applying pressure on the dough ball using your hands, then sprinkle some black sesame seeds on it. Roll it out into an approximately round shape using a Rolling pin.

3rd: Now heat a nonstick pan and put the round shaped flattened out dough on the heated pan. Cook it without any oil. After 1 side puffs up flip the naan over.
Once it get slightly golden spots remove it from the pan.


4th: Now place it on a wire rack and place it directly on the flame (like below). Keep the flame on medium to low heat (take care not to burn the naan) flip it over and cook on both sides.


5th: Once you see brown spots on the naan, remove it from the burner. Now apply butter on both sides & serve hot!


~ENJOY~
