onlytaste, on 2/5/2006 11:20am why use self-raising flour AND yeast and yogurt in the making of naan bread? What effect does each of this have on the result? thank you, I really want to understand. P.S. for garlic and coriander, do you use fresh garlic? on top or inside the dough? | |
Mamta, on 2/5/2006 02:58pm Well, traditionally naans are made from plain flour, yeast and yoghurt. I use SR flour or flour + baking powder, to make it rise better and faster. You don't have to, as the recipe says. If you can give the dough longer time to rise or live in a warm country or have a warm place you can leave the dough or have a bread maker, you should be okay. I always use fresh garlic and fresh coriander leaves. It is only on rarely that I use garlic powder, garlic salt or bought garlic paste. So, the answer to your questions is yes. Incidentally, I have been making naans on a frying pan/tawa, just like a Kulcha and they come out quite well. | |
onlytaste, on 9/5/2006 05:27pm this is what I get when I use crushed garlic. When is it best to add it? | |
Mamta, on 10/5/2006 06:21am You can add it to the dough, though some people do brush it as garlic butter. Mamta |
