Ingredients:
2 cups unbleached all purpose flour2 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp yogurt
1 packet of active dry yeast
3 tbsp of warm water
2 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1-2 tsp kalonji seeds / nigella seeds / onion seeds
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh cilantro
2 tsp clarified butter
Steps:
- Start by adding warm water, 1 tsp sugar and yeast for a minute or till the yeast rises.
- In a large bowl add rest of the ingredients (except for kalonji and cilantro) and mix well with your hands or you can use a food processor. Add the yeast mixture and knead for about 3-4 minutes.
- Knead the ball of dough until smooth and cover it with damp cloth or lid. Set it aside in a warm place for 2-3 hours or till the dough rises. Once the dough has risen, its time to bake the naan.
- Knead the dough slightly to form a ball again and separate the dough into 4-5 smaller balls.
- Preheat conventional oven to 350 degree F.
- Dip the dough balls in little bit of flour (do not use too much flour for rolling) and roll the ball in shape of a circle. Sprinkle little bit of kalonji seeds and cilantro on the rolled dough. Place the rolled dough on the pizza stone leaving 1 inch space for all of them to bake. Repeat the process with rest of the dough balls.
- Place the pizza stone in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the naan's turn golden brown from the top.
- Once baked remove the naan's from the oven and brush it with clarified butter.
- Serve hot with Dal Makhani or other entree's with dipping sauce....
