Naan

[Halex]

Doing this Naan today, it looks delish and a lot easier than the one in the Indian cookbook.

Serving it with butter chicken (from  Indan cookbook) and basmatti rice. Yum, roll on dinner, Gosh it's not even lunch yet. Tika paste in TM.

I thought I might start experimenting with some bread making (I have only made a couple different bread recipes) And this one caught my eye. Thanks I will give this a go next time we have a meal that requires some bread to mop up the sauces. Yum

any ideas on a dairy free option to use instead of yoghurt? maybe coconut cream?

Someone on RC makes it with soy yoghurt for a dairy free version Deb.

Thanks JD, can always rely on you as a fountain of knowledge. Will give this a go

I tried this yesterday and they turned out and looked great - just like naan bread. However, didn't have that naan bread taste, more like regular bread. Is that because you need those special ovens. Also, I didn't wrap them with a tea towel once out.

Tasty,  I think that the slight smoky taste comes from the oven the 'real' ones are baked in.  You could try and get this smoky flavor by reheating them on a BBQ.

Thanks Chookie - I think I will try the BBQ thing next time - didn't even cross my mind to do it that way.

Some recipes have more yoghurt in them which gives them more of a tang too.

I made the nan from the Indian cook book last night and they turned out really good. I am wondering if next time they could be better by cooking them on the pizza stone, have that warming in the oven and slap them onto it. Next time I will try your receipe Chookie.

We've made Chookie's recipe before and can definitely recommend.

We did them when we had friends over for an indian dinner and cooked them on the BBQ, in a pan on the wok burner.  The high heat of the BBQ worked a treat and they turned out great.  Everyone enjoyed them and they disappeared fast

Making these for dinner tonight.

I do the naan bread in my pizza maker. Gives it that smoky flavor that is missing if I do them in the oven.

Wish I was having your dinner tonight Halex.

Glad you girls like them.  Have. A friend who cooks them in a frying pan.  Loves them.
