Cilantro And Coriander Seed Naan Bread
- 5 cups bread flour (or all purpose flour)
- 1 1/4 cups plain yogurt
- 1 teaspoon coriander seed
- 1 tablespoon fresh coriander
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 1/2 teaspoons dried yeast
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus extra for brushing
- 3 sprigs cilantro (to garnish)
- Dry roast the seeds until aromatic.
- Crush them coarsely using a Mortar and pestle, or use that coffee grinder that has been lying around unused for a while now :).
- Put them into a pan with the water and bring it to a boil. Set aside.
- Put the yogurt into another bowl, add the yeast. Pour the seeds+water mixture and stir well.
- Add 1-1/2 cups of flour and stir it well until blended. Cover the bowl and let it prove for 30minutes.
- Then add the salt, oil and the remaining flour. Knead it well on a lightly floured surface until smooth and place it back in the bowl. Cover it and let it double - approx 1 hour.
- Then punch it down, turn it down on a lightly floured surface and slowly add in the chopped cilantro into the dough.
- Divide the dough into small balls and then using a rolling pin, roll it out into oblong shapes.
- On a skillet, place the naan, brush it with little oil.
- once its done on one side, turn it the other side.
