Cheese Naan
Ingredients:
1 package Active dry yeast
1 tsp sugar
3 tbsp warm milk
4 cups All-purpose flour
1/2 cup Warm milk
1/2 cup Yogurt
1 Egg, beaten
1 tbsp Oil or melted butter
1/2 tsp Salt
Cheese, meat, onions, and fresh herbs - optional stuffing choices
Instruction:
- Activate the yeast. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the yeast, sugar and 3 tablespoons warm milk. Cover and set aside for 5-10 minutes.
- Add the flour to a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, yogurt, oil, and salt, then slowly incorporate it into the flour.
- Beat the dough until it's nice and smooth. If using a mixer, use the dough hook attachment for about 10 minutes. To mix by hand, bring the ingredients together with a fork and then knead on a lightly floured work surface until smooth, also about 10 minutes.
- Form the dough into a ball. Place it in an oiled bowl, covered with plastic wrap, in a warm place. Wait until it doubles in size, which can take 1-2 hours.
- Remove the dough from the bowl, and punch it down with your fists on a floured board.
- Cut the dough into 8-10 equal pieces, depending on the size you want your naan to be. Roll each piece into a ball, cover the balls loosely with plastic wrap, and allow them to double in size once again.
- Place an empty baking sheet in the oven. Preheat to 475-500 degrees.
- Flatten each dough ball into a circle. Place 1 tablespoon of your stuffing in the middle and fold the dough in half. Roll each piece into an oblong shape with your hands.
- Brush the naans with oil.
- Place the naans on the preheated baking sheet for 5 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
