Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup curd
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tbsp garlic chopped finely
  • 2 tbsp coriander chopped finely
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds
  • salt

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, add 1.5 cups wheat flour, 1/2 cup curd, 1/4 tsp baking powder, 1/8 tsp baking soda, salt and mix it into a soft dough.
  • Rest the dough for 20 mins and make balls out of it.
  • Dust the stone with flour and roll out the naan in elongated shape.
  • Add chopped garlic, chopped coriander leaves, few sesame seeds on top side and roll it slightly
  • Apply water on the back side of the rolled dough.
  • And place the naan on a hot tawa with the water applied side facing downwards.
  • Cook in medium flame. Once bubble starts coming out on the top side, remove it from the pan and place it directly on the stove; I use electric stove, so I have placed it on top of the wire mesh.
  • Cook for 3-4 mins until whole naan is cooked.
  • Brush the naan with ghee once removed from the stove.
  • Serve it hot. It is done

Notes

  1. Use warm water while making the dough, it helps in making the dough softer. 
  2. Mix the dough for around 10-12 mins, so that it would become soft.
  3. Make sure to not roll the dough very thin or very thick  - it should be of medium thickness.
