BM #92 Day 6 -
The popular Naan in a fried avatar is the new favorite with my kids. The yeasted dough is deep fried in oil and the result is a very soft and flaky bread and tastes divine when paired with any gravy curry. I served it with Chana Masala.
I had bookmarked this from Valli's space a while ago and when I was cracking my brains for the letter F, I happened to look through my bookmarks and found this awesome bread. F for Fried Naan.
Try it out to believe me, while I get the flatbread starting with 'G', ready.

Ingredients -
All purpose Flour 1 cup
Salt to taste
Butter / Oil 1 Tbsp
Yogurt 1-2 Tbsp
Kalonji / Onion Seeds couple pinches
Oil to deep fry (I used Canola Oil)
Yeast Solution -
Active Dry Yeast 1/4 tsp
Milk 1 Tbsp
Sugar 1 tsp
Method Of Preparation -
In a small bowl, add warm milk and sugar. Pour in the yeast, mix well and allow the yeast to froth up in a warm place for about 8-10 minutes.
In a bigger mixing bowl, add the flour, kalonji and salt. Pour in the butter/oil and rub into the flour mixture.
Add in the yogurt and the yeast solution and knead into a soft dough.
With greased fingers, oil the bowl, put in the kneaded dough, cover with a moist towel and let the dough rise in a warm place. [about 1-2 hours]
After the dough has doubled, pinch 6 equal portions of the dough and roll into thin oblong shapes.
Heat oil in a pan and gently slide the oblong shaped dough. Fry on both sides until they turn golden brown on both sides.
Remove and continue with the rest of the dough.
Serve warm with any gravy of your choice.
