For making the naanza bread or naan bread
Ingredients:
• Refined flour 2 cups
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 cup dahi
• Water as required to knead a soft & super stretchy dough
Methods:
• In a mixing bowl, add refined flour, salt, sugar, baking soda, mix it and further add, curd and water, mix until you have got a sticky mixture & the flour comes together.
• Now add some oil & start kneading the dough. As soon as you add the oil you will notice that the dough is easier to handle. You can sprinkle some dry flour if the dough is very sticky.
• Knead well for 10-12 minutes at least or until the dough is smooth & isn’t sticky anymore.
• Cover with a damp cloth for a minimum of 30 minutes.
• After the rest, shape it in dough balls, cot it with dry flour, flatten it rolling pin keeping it little bit thick as naans are, stretch from one side.
• Set an iron tava on high flame. Note that the tava should be an iron tava. The tava should be really hot.
• Now apply water nicely on the back of the naan. Stick the naan on the hot tava water side down.
• Cook until bubbles appear which should take half a minute. Now invert the tava & cook on direct flame while directing the tava from different angles to cook the naan well.
• Once the naan is cooked perfectly, remove & keep aside to be used as a base for making naanza.
