SOYA NAAN

Now you can make naan at home without a tandoor.

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups plain flour (maida)
1/2 cup Soya Flour
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
20 grams fresh yeast or 2 teaspoons dry yeast
2 tablespoons fresh curds
25 grams ghee or magarine or butter
1 teaspoon salt

Method

1. Sieve the flours very well.
2. Mix the sugar and yeast in 1 teacup of warm water and stir until the yeast dissoves. Cover and wait for 5 to 7 minutes until the mixture is full of froth.
3. Add this liquid along with the curds, ghee and salt to the flours and make a soft dough by adding some more warm water.
4. Knead the dough for at least 6 to 7 minutes.
5. Keep the dough under a wet cloth for 30 minutes.
6. Knead again for 1 minute.
7. Divide the dough into 20 small pieces (or make 10 big balls) and shape into naans.

8. Grease a pressure cooker very lightly with oil. Remove the lid from the pressure cooker and heat it upside down.
9. Take each naan, apply a little water on one side and stick the wet side around the inside of the pressure cooker till brown spots appear. You can apply 3 to 4 naans at a time inside the walls of a pressure cooker.

OR
8. Grease and Heat a Non-Stick Tava, apply a little water on one side ao the Naan and stick the wet side on the Tava, cover and cook.
9. Open, turn the naan and cook on the other side.

10. Remove and apply butter.
11. Serve hot !!!
