And seeing as Chris hasn't given a recipe for his 'nailed yeast-less' Naan bread, I will.

Ingredients:

450g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 tsp sugar
55g softened butter
250ml warm milk

This quantity can be halved for half the number of Naan breads.


Method:

Sift the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar into a large bowl. Rub in the softened butter till it resembles breadcrumbs, add warm milk a little at a time and mix thoroughly.

Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes at least and cover with a damp cloth to rest for 20-30 minutes.

Pre-heat the grill on high for 5-10 minutes, divide the dough into about 8 equal portions and roll out to about 8 or 9 inches in diameter.

Grill naan's in batches for about 1.5 minutes each side and watch carefully as they will rise and puff up very quickly and will burn if you're not careful. Brush with melted butter or butter ghee.

Interesting comment seeing as you haven't even tried my recipe for yeastless ones.

And as fas as I'm aware, BIR's use yeast and yoghurt in theirs or are you suggesting now they don't?

At least Spicey..... has had the decency to share his version and does not merely use this forum solely for his own selfish ends.

Thanks for the recipe spicey!
It doesn't appear to be too different from CBM's (aside from the use of butter as far as I can remember) but I wasn't very successful. I used a tawa though.

I shall give this version a try

Am always interested in Naan recipes as I find them the most difficult to get right. If you would be so good as to share your recipe for a non-yeast Naan this would be much appreciated Chris.

Looks very good.
Is there going to be a follow up recipe,or are you once again trying to provoke another slanging match onto the forum?

If it is the latter, then honestly mate,your sales pitch is in need of some serious renovation.
You will end up driving any potential custom away.

PS. Thanks for the recipe,spiceyokooko .
They're always appreciated.
