Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup water (or as needed)
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- Nigella seeds (kalonji) or sesame seeds for topping
Directions
- In a mixing bowl, add the all-purpose flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Mix well.
- Add oil and melted butter to the flour mixture and mix well with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add milk and water to the mixture and knead into a soft and smooth dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- After the dough has rested, divide it into equal-sized balls. Dust each ball with flour and roll out into a slightly thicker circle.
- Brush the top of the rolled-out naan with beaten egg and sprinkle some nigella seeds or sesame seeds on the top.
- Heat a tawa or a non-stick pan over medium heat. Once hot, place the rolled-out naan onto the tawa with the egg side down and cook for 30 seconds.
- Flip the naan and cook for another 30 seconds. Then, flip the naan again and cook for 15-20 seconds.
- Using tongs, remove the naan from the tawa and place it onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
- Serve the roghni naan hot with your favorite curry or chutney. Enjoy!
