Wheat Naan Bread











Wheat Naan Bread
Ingredients:
  • White bread flour - 1 cup
  •  Wheat flour- 1 cup
  • Vegetable oil - 1 tablespoon.
  • Salt - 1 teaspoon 
  • Baking powder - 1 tea spoon.
  • Sour curd (yogurt) - 1/2 cup
  • Water - ½ cup or as needed.
  • Some plain flour for dusting.
Preparation
  • Mix flour, salt, baking powder, curd, salt and oil in a big bowl.
  • Add water little by little and form soft dough. The dough should not be too tight.
  • Knead well. Keep aside in a warm place for 3-4 hours or more, till the dough rises.
Making Naan:
  1. Knead the dough again till it is smooth.
  2. Divide in 4 big portions.
  3. Sprinkle a little flour on the board. Place a dough ball on it and pat in a thick oblong or round shape as you like. You can also use a rolling pin if you wish.
  4. Heat oven or grill .  Place the rolled naan on it and cook on both sides till brown spots appear.
Once the bread is done, add your favorite sauce or pesto sauce then top with fresh uncooked veggies, my favorites( onion, green, orange, red peppers, mushrooms, zucchini slices,). I prefer without cheese but if you do add cheese, just lightly sprinkle on top.  Cook for 10 minutes until cheese melts and veggies are lightly cooked. Enjoy!!
