This is the most amazing naan bread that I have ever tasted. I can't believe how much better this tastes than takeaway naan. It is incredibly easy to make too.

Time 1h33m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

150 ml warm milk
2 teaspoons caster sugar
2 teaspoons dried active dry yeast
450 g plain flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
150 ml natural yogurt, lightly beaten
1 egg, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Put the milk in a bowl. Add 1tsp of sugar and the yeast. Stir to mix. Set aside for 15-20 minutes or until the yeast has dissolved and the mixture is frothy.
  • Sift the flour, salt and baking powder into a bowl. Add the remaining 1tsp sugar, the yeast mixture, 2tblsp vegetable oil and yogurt and egg. Mix to form a ball of dough.
  • Knead for 10 minutes until smooth and satiny (I did this in a stand mixer). Form into a ball. Pour 1/4tsp oil into a large bowl and roll the ball of dough in it. Cover the bowl with clingfilm and set aside for 1 hour until doubled in size.
  • Preheat the oven to it's hottest temperature. Put your heaviest baking tray to heat in the oven. Preheat your grill.
  • Punch down the dough and knead again. Divide into six equal balls. Keep covered when not working with the balls of dough. Roll the ball of dough into a tear-shaped naan, about 25cm long and 13cm wide at it's widest point.
  • Remove the tray from the oven and slap a naan on it. Put in the oven for 3 minutes, it will puff up. Now place the tray under the grill for about 30 seconds to brown slightly (I didn't bother with this as my naan browned in the oven). Wrap the naans in a tea towel or foil. Make all the naans this way. Serve hot.
  • I kept them warm wrapped in foil in a turned off warm oven, you can reheat them in the microwave for 40 seconds or so.

This recipe is very affordable, especially if you use store-bought yogurt and cilantro.

The naan bread freezes well, so I often make a big batch and freeze the leftovers for later.

I love the versatility of this recipe. You can make it plain, or add different herbs, spices, or even cheese to create different flavor variations.

I've tried many naan bread recipes, but this one is by far the best. The dough is easy to work with and the end result is a perfect naan bread.

I made a healthier version of this recipe by using whole wheat flour and Greek yogurt. It was still delicious and just as satisfying.

I love spicy food, so I added a bit of chili powder and cumin to the dough. It gave the naan a nice kick without being overpowering. Delicious!

The flavors in this naan bread are spot on. The yogurt and cilantro give it a nice tang, and the garlic and ginger add a subtle warmth. I highly recommend this recipe.

Madhur Jaffrey's naan bread recipe is a keeper! The naan turned out soft, fluffy, and had the perfect amount of chewiness. I'm definitely making this again.
