Nan (Fried Leavened Bread) Recipe
Category: Vegetarian
Rating: 4.00
Servings: 8


Ingredients

1/2 cup yogurt
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon sugar
4 tablespoon butter/oleo
2 eggs, lightly beaten
3 pkg dry yeast (1 pack=10 oz)
3 cup white flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon poppy seed



Directions: How to Cook Nan (Fried Leavened Bread)

Warm yogurt and stir in milk, until thoroughly mixed. Remove from heat.

Add baking soda, sugar, 2 tbs butter/oleo, eggs and dry yeast.

Sift together the flour and salt. Make a well in the flour and gradually add the yogurt mixture.

Knead the flour 15 to 20 mins until smooth and elastic. Brush dough with some of the remaining butter/oleo. Cover with a warm, damp cloth and set aside in a warm place for 3 hours until the dough had risen to twice its size.

Dust hands with flour. Knead the dough again for a few mins and divide into 8 balls. Roll each ball into a 10-in pancake. Pull each pancake gently to give it an oval shape. Cover with damp cloth 20 mins.

Heat a griddle until very hot. Mix the remaining 2 tbs butter/oleo with poppy seed. Brush one side of each nan with the mixture and the other side with warm water.

Place the warm-water side on the griddle for 1/2 minute. Remove from the griddle and place nan under broiler for about 2 mins. Serve with curries and tandoori dishes.

there is way too much yeast! i looked at other recipes to compare the proportions to the dough, and 3 pkgs for 3 cups of flour is way too much. with that said,the waiting time should be around an hour, not 3.
