DRY FRUIT NAAN

This flat bread needs no introduction. It was a popular bread served in an Indian restaurant. Normally made using clay oven or tandoor but  it can easily prepared in your kitchen by baking them in a oven or  on stove top.

Naan was a regular fare in our home since my son was a great fan of this naan stuffed with dry fruit. Am using ready made mixture of sultanas, glaced cherries and mixed peel as its stuffing.

I had successfully pan fried these naan without oil and it doesn't  stick to my cast iron pan at all.  To get a perfect result, make sure the pan was  fully  heated  before placing the naan and cook them using medium heat.

DRY FRUIT NAAN

2 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp instant yeast
2 tablespoon yogurt
2 tablespoon oil
2 tsp sugar
3/4 tsp salt
4 tablespoon dry fruit mix
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon warm  milk

METHOD

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar and salt.

Mix in yogurt, oil and gradually add  milk.

Forms into soft dough using a mixer or by hand.  Knead by hand for 10 minutes on floured board.

Transfer dough onto greased and covered bowl. Let rise until double for 1.5-2 hours.

Punch dough down. Divide into 4 portion.

Shape each portion into round, place a tablespoon of dry fruit in center. Seal the edges and shape into a ball again.

Roll out each ball into tear shaped naan. Complete the rest of the dough.

Fry each naan on a preheated heavy based pan until brown spots appear on the surface on both sides.

Remove and serve hot with your favorite gravy.
