No Yeast Naan Bread Recipes

NAAN BREAD RECIPE WITH NO YEAST: A QUICK AND EASY RECIPE

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, sieve the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir well and through.
• Take another mixing bowl and put the yoghurt and sugar in it. Beat it until the sugar dissolves. Then add in the water, beat it again. You can use a wooden spoon or a hand whisk.
• Put half of the flour into the yoghurt mixture and keep beating until you get a sticky and pasty mixture.
• Add a tablespoon of oil into the mixture and continue beating.
• Next, add the rest of the flour little by little as you keep mixing. When all the flour is added, you will have a very soft and sticky dough.
• Put the dough onto a floured chopping board. And grease your hands with oil then quickly knead the dough. Place it back into the mixing bowl and cover it with a tea towel. Leave it to rest for at least 20 minutes.
• Then divide the dough into equal 5 portions and shape them into small round balls.
• Take a ball and dust it with a little flour and roll it out thinner about 0.5 cm/0.2-inch thickness. Don't worry about the shape. If you can't get it into a round shape, it's okay.
• Preheat your Tawa/ frying pan at moderately high heat and preheat your grill. Hold your palm about 10cm/ 3.94 inches over the Tawa. If you can feel the heat, it means your Tawa is ready.
• Carefully place the rolled-out dough onto the Tawa and cook at moderate-high heat. When you can see the bread is cooking, turn it around once or twice to ensure heat distribution.
• Once the dough looks changing colour into opaque and there small bubbles on the top of the bread, place the Tawa under the grill and continue cooking the bread until it's puffed up. Sometimes the bread doesn't puff up fully but it has many bubbles. That's okay.
• The naan bread will have some reddish-brown spots. Brush the naan with melted butter and garnish with chopped coriander leaves if you wish.

QUICK NAAN WITHOUT YEAST

Steps:

• Combine all dry ingredients, and whisk together.
• Create a well in the middle of the dry ingredients, and add the oil and milk. Mix everything together until it forms a ball. Turn out on the counter and knead until very smooth and elastic - at least 5 minutes - adding more flour as necessary.
• Let the dough rest for 10 minutes. Divide into 8-10 equal pieces.
• Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Roll one piece of dough until very thin (less than 1/8″). If the skillet isn't non-stick, melt some butter before each piece. One at a time, cook the naan for about 90 seconds, or until parts are blackening, on each side. When they are done, you can brush them with butter and add seasonings (cilantro, garlic, etc.), if you want.

• Mix the dough, knead just until held together.
• Let rest, covered up to 45 minutes.
• On floured surface pat out into two patty shaped surfaces.
• About 1/2 inch thickness.
• Broil under medium heat, turning once.
• These will bubble and go slightly brown.

NO YEAST NAAN BREAD (READY IN NO TIME!)

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients to a large bowl: flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
• Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon. When the dough starts to form, use your hands and knead the dough for 2-3 minutes to a working surface. If the dough is too thick, add a bit more flour.
• Cut the dough into 4 pieces. Dust your working surface with flour and roll each piece of dough with a rolling pin (about 5-6 inches circle).
• In a medium-high heat pan, brush the pan with olive oil. Add naan bread and cook for 2 minutes, until bubbles start to form. Flip and cook for another minute or so. Repeat with each piece of dough. Keep in a tea towel until ready to serve and enjoy!

NAAN-LIKE EASY FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, cumin seeds, and sugar together in a large bowl.
• Combine milk and 1 tablespoon oil in a small saucepan; heat over medium heat until warm, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir into flour mixture until small clumps form. Knead dough, adding more flour by the tablespoon if needed, until it is soft and smooth. Let dough rest, about 3 minutes.
• Divide dough into 4 equal pieces. Pressed into flat circles on a floured work surface.
• Brush a large skillet with remaining 1 tablespoon oil; heat over medium-high heat. Cook circles of dough one at a time until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
