Naan (Without yeast)

Ingredients:

Maida/All pupose flour-    2 cups
Fresh thick curds -1/2 cup
Milk,warm -1/2 cup
Sugar     1/2 tsp
Salt     1 tsp
Baking powder     3/4 tsp
Cooking soda     3/4 tsp
Melted Ghee/Butter     4 tsps


Method

Sieve maida with baking powder and cooking soda for 3 times.( to ensure even mixing)
take the seived flour in a bowl and make a dent in the centre.

Now Pour milk,curd,salt,sugar in that.

Mix well after a minute,gather the flour with your finger tips and dont knead hard.

Keep aside covered for 2-3 hours.you can keep upto 7-8 hours

Knead the dough softly at the time of making and make even sized balls.

The size should be larger than our chapatti making ball.

Dust the rolling platform generously with maida and roll it and pull one edge to make a tear shape.


Apply water on top of naan and turn over it to the hot tawa so that the water
applied part sticks to the pan.

Cook covered in medium flame and after a minute if u open,u could see it has puffed up.
Now turn the pan upside down and cook the otherside on direct flame till the other side becomes light golden in colour.

If u r not comfortable in this u can simply take and put the nan in direct flame as u do for roties ,
otherwise also u can turn over it in tawa itself and cook.Its your choice.But cooking in direct flame sure gives a good finish to the naan.

Apply butter/ghee over both sides and serve hot.!
