Naan Bread cooked on a Nipoori
Made this Naan Bread from a tested recipe. I serve it with Honey Lemon Chicken and Green Lentil curry.
Servings: 6
Cook time: 20 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
2 tsp active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water*
1/8 cup white sugar*
3 tbsp milk
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp salt
2 1/4 cups plain flour*
1 tbsp oil
1/4 tsp baking powder
*using 250ml cup measurement
METHOD:
1. Take a large bowl and dissolve sugar in the warm water. Add the yeast and stand for about 10 minutes, until it becomes frothy.
2. Next, add the salt, milk, oil and egg and mix it well.
3. Sieve in the plain flour and baking powder.
4. Knead for 8-10 minutes.
5. Place the dough in a well oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth and set aside in a warm place, to rise.
6. After about an hour, the dough will have doubled in volume.
7. Pinch off about 6 small portions of the dough and roll into balls (rub a bit of the plain flour into your palm to prevent it from sticking). Cover it with a towel and allow to rest for another 30 minutes.
8. Next fire up your Nipoori Oven. Once it is ready, place the grill onto the bottom cone.
9. Now roll out one ball of dough into a circle (not too thin).
10. Lightly oil the grill and place the dough onto it and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until puffy and lightly browned. Turn it over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove it from grill.
11. Continue the process until all the naan?s has been cooked.
