10000g s/r flour         100%
5 med 5eggs=280g         2.6%
150g salt                1.5%
150g sugar               1.5%
800g yogurt              8.0%
250ml milk               2.5%
5200ml water            52%

This will give a dough with 65% hydration.
cheers mick gona give this a go on a smaller scale.

500g s/r flour
13g egg
7.5g salt
7.5g sugar
40g yogurt
12.5g milk
260g water

will let you know how it turns out.

Chris, where did you get the actual amounts of water (5200ml /260g) from, to make this scaled version of Micks recipe?
Sorry only asking because I couldn't see an actual amount of water given by Mick in his OP.

Cheers
Martin

Because i make bread Martin i sort of know what hydration is needed. so i add up the hydration percentage that is known, then work out what water is needed to get to the hydration level needed.

here's how they turned out with only 6 hours rest.
next time i make them i will take the hydration up to 67%
cheers mick.

They look good Chris. How was the taste test?

Look good; what about the taste?

How does it compare with other recipes you have tried?

The taste, to be honest it was okay, but I do prefer the naan bread I make using yeast.
I suppose that is just down to personal preference. I don't know why but when I was cooking them I just had this feeling, this is more of a tandoori oven recipe, I think it would benefit from being cooked with a intense heat.
Oh well nothing ventured nothing gained.
Thanks a lot mick, really appreciate you putting these recipes up and taking the time out from your relaxation time
