Naan from RecipeTin Eats - Dinner: 150+ Recipes from Australia's Favourite Cook (page 50) by Nagi Maehashi

  • bread flour
  • instant yeast
    Instant yeast appears similar to active dry yeast, but has smaller granules with substantially higher percentages of live cells per comparable unit volumes. It is more perishable than active dry yeast, but also does not require rehydration, and can usually be added directly to all but the driest doughs. Instant yeast generally has a small amount of ascorbic acid added as a preservative. (Wikipedia) Buy Now

    These were delicious! I think I rolled mine too thin, so next time I will leave them smaller and thicker. The flavor and texture were wonderful. I would definitely make these again!

    Made this for the second time to serve with Cod in Green Curry. This time I used bread flour and made sure my cast iron was quite hot. The Naan puffed up beautifully and had just the right amount of char on the outside, while remaining pillowy inside. Best homemade Naan I have ever had!

    I used all purpose flour (as Canadian AP protein content is very close to bread flour) and used the make ahead tip of refrigerating the dough for around 4 hours after the 1st rise. It didn't really collapse in the fridge (as she says it would) but no matter because these were lovely...this time used to dip into a saucy, "curry-like" dish. I've made others with yogurt that we loved but these certainly rank among the best naan I've made.
