Oops.....you probably meant the Madras, sorry

[Donald Brasco]

Yeah,,,, naan breads are good too though, just couldn't watch that video though, the guy needs to just spit it out not take 5 mins to say one thing!  No offence to anyone but a recipe video for naan breads only needs to be 3-4 mins, not 27 

[Garp]

Haha.

But, to be honest, the recipe is worth the agony. I doubt, Chris will ever make it as a TV star, but it is a thorough video

Naan Bread
Ingredients:
1 egg, beaten
200g milk
8g baking powder
2g onion seeds
100g sugar
1kg self-raising flour
Method:
Put the egg, milk, baking powder, onion seeds and sugar into a jug and whisk.
Leave for 30 minutes whisking occasionally.
Put the flour in a mixing bowl and add the mixture plus 330ml of water.
Mix together til you have a dryish dough ? don?t overmix.
Put in a tub, cover with cling film, pressing down, and leave for 2-3 hours at room temperature.
Rub some oil on hands and punch the dough down, tearing it away from the sides of the tub. Give it a good punching, then cover again and put in fridge overnight.
Rub hands with flour and divide dough into balls ? bigger than a golf ball but smaller than a tennis ball. Cover with cling film and leave for 2 hours at room temperature.
Dip ball in flour ? squeeze flat with hand then dip in flour again.
Press out on worktop then roll out to a disc.
Brush oil on top side then put disc on cushion ? oiled side to cushion, stretching the edges gently to desired size.
Spread some water liberally  around the edges of the disc then over the rest.
Slap disc onto pre-heated tawa.
Almost immediately, bubbles should start to form. Leave for a few more seconds then turn over tawa and hold the naan about 3-4 inches from the flame. Move it around in circular motion.
After a minute or two, naan should be done.

I only use 50 g of sugar and no onion seeds

I do need to tidy that transcription up a little

[LouP]

Its a great transcription Garp. Couldn't remember who had done it but I had copied and pasted to a word document ages ago.
I don't need the recipes now for my rice/ curry/ naan exploits but they are backed up in a recipes file just incase I get a knock on the head.

Hey thanks for that naan recipe! I'll give it a try sometime.  Only bit which isn't too clear is this cushion business but I'll refer to the video for that.

Next time I make this recipe I need to convert the kilo weights to ml for fluids and teaspoon/tablespoon for solids. Not including the flour of course.
It is unusual for me to follow a recipe using scales.
