Recipe for organic naan bread

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of organic atta flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 3/4 cup lukewarm water
  • 1 teaspoon organic unrefined cane sugar
  • 2 tablespoons of yoghurt
  • Salt to taste

Method

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt and yeast. Add yogurt and a little lukewarm water and knead to make a smooth dough. Knead for at least 4 to 5 minutes so the dough gets a good texture.
  • Cover the dough and place in a warm place for at least 2 hours until it doubles in size.
  • Knead for a couple of more minutes. Make 6 to 8 portions of the dough and allow to rest for another 10 minutes. The dough will rise again a bit.
  • Dust flour on a working surface and roll them into ovals.
  • Heat a pan on medium heat, place the rolled naan dough over the heated pan and cook on both sides. You will notice brown spots come on the top and the naans will puff up with air pockets.
