This is so delicious that I ate way too many, dripping with butter, and although I tried with the first lot to add flavour (parmesan, garlic, coriander seeds etc) I subsequently decided I liked to have plain as I could then add flavour later. Great with the Daal of the previous post, great with melted butter, or even {shudder} golden syrup, honey, jam or what the hell??? Vegemite! SO Aussie BBQ Naan…at your service!
NEED:
1 cup milk
1 egg lightly beaten
2 tablespoons olive oil (can use ghee to be authentic)
3/4 cup Greek style plain yoghurt
4 cups plain flour
2 teaspoons instant yeast granules
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
DO:
In TM bowl combine milk, egg, oil and yoghurt and yeast and blend on speed 7 for a few seconds.
Warm for 3 minutes on 50oC at speed 2.
Put flour, salt, sugar, baking powder into the Thermomix bowl.
Using kneading function, knead for 3 minutes.
Add more warm milk if the dough does not come together.
Place into a large oiled bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap and leave to rise for up to 2 hours.
Preheat Pizza stone on Cross Fire BBQ with hood down until temp shows at least 200 degrees celcius.
Turn dough onto floured surface and knead by hand until smooth.
Divide dough equally…about 100 grams per portion.
Roll out to 1/2 cm thickness. Stretch by hand into a tear shape.
Place onto hot Pizza stone for approx 5-8 minutes.
You should not have to turn them over.
Serve immediately with toppings of choice.
I had of necessity to pre-make these for my BBQ cooking class, and I froze the dough unrisen in portion sizes. They defrosted and rose perfectly and were delicious, even 3 days later!

I love nan! But dripping with butter? That’s extra love right there!
The yeast has been left out of the method. Not sure where it should have been added. in with yoghurt mix or dry ingreds ???
Sorry about that…how bizarre…yes, put the yeast in with the yoghurt mix

Just wondering if you know of a recipe for either ciabata or turkish bread?

So any ideas on how to make this without a BBQ? (Dare I admit I’m an aussie with no BBQ)
What?? (shock horror)…you can always use a pizza stone in your oven, just be sure it is nice and hot. The naan will take around 4-5 minutes only, so watch carefully!
