RECIPE OF THE DAY (December 11th 2006):
Naan Bread
by Mallika
Ingredients: 3 1/2 cups flour (maida), 1/2 cup
yoghurt, 1 egg, 1/4 cup butter, salt to taste, 3 tsp
sugar, 3/4 cup water, 1 2/3 tbsp. dried yeast
Method: 1. In a dish, take 5 tbsp. of water,
add the yeast and a teaspoon of sugar and stir well.
Keep aside for 10-12 minutes. (You will see bubbles
on the surface of the mixture which suggests that the
yeast is all right). 2. Now, add in the remaining water,
sugar, yoghurt, egg, butter, and salt. Stir well.
3. Add
the flour to this liquid and make into a smooth, soft,
and elastic dough. (It will take about 10-15 minutes).
4. Take a warm bowl, butter all the sides and the bottom
of the bowl then place the dough in the bowl, cover
with a cloth and keep in a warm place until the dough
doubles in height (about 40 minutes). 5. Push a finger
into the dough. If the impression remains, then it is
ready to be baked. Make the dough into 8 equal balls,
flatten them into circles with your fingers such that
the edges are thicker than the center. 6. Pull one end
of the circle so that the dough circle now looks like
a tear drop or a balloon in two dimensions. The length
is about a handspan and width about a palm. 7. Heat
oven to 450F, and on a non-greased baking tray, place
the dough. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown.
Naan goes well with any Vegetable Kormas or Dhansak.
Plain fresh yogurt is also served as an accompaniment.
(serves 5 people).

APÉTIT.....
