Tried and Tested: Naan Bread

picture borrowed from http://www.muminawe.com

The lovely Wilhelmine sent me her recipe for Indian Naan bread and I quickly tried it out last night.
It was so easy and swift to make and it was ready by the time the stir fry to go with it was done.

Recommended!

450 gram self raising flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp vegetable oil
4 tbsp plain yoghurt
2 eggs beaten
150 ml water

Quickly mix the wet ingredients together and combine with the dry. Form to a dough and let it rest for 15 mins before you shape them into naan bread. This makes about 6 breads - depending on how big you want them, of course.
Bake in the oven on very high temperature (I used 275 degrees) for 3-5 mins.
Keep a close eye on them!

I didn't have any yoghurt available so I used cottage cheese and this worked just as well.
Also, I didn't manage to take a picture of them as they were 'gone' before I got the camera out, but the borrowed picture above is a good representation except I didn't put any herbs in.

Big hit with Our Boy! 

A good recipe to keep in mind if you have run out of bread - which happens from time to time in our house...

  3. Hei! Vi har jo ikke mel med hevingsmiddel i norge, men det går vel ann å ha i litt ekstra bakepulver, eller natron?? siden man bruker yoghert?? Skal prøve denne oppskriften!! AnneK:-)

  4. hei pa deg AnneK,

    vet du, jeg opplever ikke sa stor forskjell pa melet - self raising eller ei. Synes faktisk selfraising oppforer seg som melet hjemme i Norge og jeg bruker bare det i alle mine oppskrifter. Men prov deg frem og ha gjerne i litt mer bakepulver - mulig det blir litt eksta bakepulver smak da?

  5. Takk! Spiser lavkarbo akkurat for øyeblikket, men skal lagre denne. Naan-brød er jo så godt til indisk mat!
