"I munched one while I was cooking". Always, especially for pancakes and waffles. If you can muster up the self control to make only a quarter of it disappear, you're doing well.
Recipe worked out real well for me. I rolled out the dough, wet the surface on one side, placed in carefully, wet side down, on an upside-down hot tawa, cook until bubbles start to form then turn tawa over and roast the naan over the flames. Yum! give it a try, just like tandoori
Made a double batch this evening - such a simple an relatively quick recipe with great results. Soft and chewy texture, lightly crispy crust (if you eat fresh from the griddle) - the garlic butter spread is the perfect accompaniment for the Naan. (Notice I didn't say Naan "bread"?) 😅😅 Thanks for sharing this recipe - I shared with family - they just love your recipes!!
Made them again. I think it's fair to post that the recipe here has consistently delivered. We've made them 4 times now. Each time they've worked. I've made great naan before with a super soft dough that's difficult to work with. Then...the next time they didn't work - for whatever reason. But these have worked 4 times in a row. Credit where it is due
I love your videos, Charlie! You explain the hows, whens, and whys so clearly - and always impart great tips and nuggets of knowledge. I am definitely going to make this recipe 😁 I have been meaning to ask you: How do you know what your dough temps should be, at any given time? The naan dough you made, you seemed to want it around 19- 20 celsius. Other doughs, you have mentioned different temps. I need a " Charlie's Quick Reference Dough Temp Chart" to tell me 😀
Thank you so much! :) I try to add as much info as I can without making the videos too long and boring 😄 It was the temperature of the liquid that I wanted to be 19-20C. The final dough temperature should ideally be between 24-26C depending on warm or cold your kitchen is. Luckily I’m publishing a video on how to calculate dough temperature this Sunday! 😁 you will find out all about it soon ;)
@@ChainBaker, oh, yay! I'm super-excited to see your next video! 🤗 And, you are definitely nailing it with your content, and presentation - so please keep it up. Today, I'm making your pizza dough recipe - it's gonna be our dinner, tomorrow night 🍕
Ok. So I posted a comment on the tortillas' video. I'm not criticising - we just didn't get them quite right...I suspect. My wife and I made these today. Well, my wife did. Amazing. We have a tortilla press so we used it. Perfectly circular naan were produced. Soft, browned and delicious. I used to live in Edinburgh and there's a place called The Mosque Kitchen. I recommend it highly. It's literally a kitchen that feeds people in a mosque. You can have a great curry lunch for not a great deal of money. Anyway, their naan breads were always circular. I expect they used a tortilla press too. These naans tasted almost as good as there. That is a massive compliment to this recipe.
😆 your narration made me laugh, makes every baking look so easy. Its a joy to watch you at work. Roti means bread in Indian language. Nan is type of roti or bread. You have many other Indian breads like kulcha, lachcha like nan, therefore nan bread is technically correct to say 😊
Oh I see! I always thought nan meant bread 😁 I knew that roti meant bread in Southeast Asia. I am actually planning to make a video on potato stuffed kulcha too. Thank you🙏
We love us some naan with my ‘famous’ butter chicken or curry in our fam. My Dad cooked his curry every Sunday to give Mom a break. He taught me how to make allll the Indian dishes his Aunt made him -curry, butter chicken, naan, chutney, and so many others. my favorite is butter chicken. So yum. Love you Dad in heaven ❤️🩹
I love your posts and have tried many of the breads. One question, I note that you like to measure the temperature of the dough however I dont understand what you are looking for and what to do if the temperature is not right? Could you explain this in a future vid. Thanks
I worked in 2 tablespoons of minced garlic into your recipe and dipped it in olive oil. Wow! My family made it disappear. Thanks for the great content.
Going to try this in my waffle maker. Looking for ways to cook with electric since we have solar but egad the natural gas prices are up 300% since November. Will let the community know how it goes.
Did you try it? When I lived in a caravan I had electric hook up so I cooked with just electric most of the time, unless it was a roast! I had a 2 ring electric hob that was just a plug in type thing, easy to put away etc.
Hi! I have a question. I made some naan the other day with the following percentages: 500 gr flour, 55% hydration with full fat milk and 4T of regular yogurt (60 gr I think? = 12%). Taking into account that milk and yogurt don't 100% consist of water, this would, respectively, be 90% and 80% (if I'm correct). So: Flour - 500 gr - 100% Milk - 275 gr - 55% (90% = 247,5 -> 50% real hydration) Yogurt - 60 gr - 12% (80% = 48 gr -> ~10% real hydration) ---> Total 60% hydration. Salt and yeast like usual. No oil added. It turned out extremely delicious, But.... my problem was that during the initial kneading the dough I had a lot of issues because it was extremely sticky and did not come together for quite a while. Do you have any explanation why? Is this perhaps due to the fat content in the milk and yoghurt, preventing gluten formation and thus ending up sticky? Thank you very much for your answer!
The fat content could definitely play a part in it. What kind of flour was it? What is the protein percentage? If it's low protein all purpose or cake flour, then that may have been the reason.
Hey Charlie, what can i replace the yogurt with for a vegan? more milk or butter (vegan of course ) i will definitely make this with vegan tikki masala or vegan curry (in curry i replace the yogurt with coconut milk from a can the thick kind)
@@ChainBaker These have quickly become a staple in my house whenever making curries or tikka masala, just awesome i wanted to try it with whole wheat flour not white, would you bump up the liquid in the recipe, otherwise i think it would be too dry with whole grain ? ;)
@@ChainBaker WOW!! Latvian. I am trying to learn Ukrainian only because my mother is in an Ukrainian assisted facility in Canada I would much prefer to learn Italian which is my father side. Any chance you can show us how to make Flammkuchen?? My mother and I had it in a restaurant when we were in Germany a few years ago and it was absolutely delicious. However the only recipes I can find on TH-cam they’re all speaking German. I managed to make a halfway decent one I ate it anyway lol. Someone should tell these TH-cam creators that they can turn on close captions so the rest of the world can understand what the heck they are saying.🤪

@@ChainBaker Nan means bread in Persian/Farsi. So at least there is one language in which "Nan bread" sounds like "bread bread".
At least I was half right 😄

Sir, if we don't have yogurt, can I substitute it with something else? Or maybe I can adjust the amount of the water or oil? Thank you😁
You can use milk instead ;)
Looks so delicious
Sometimes the simplest things are the best 😁
I worked in 2 tablespoons of minced garlic into your recipe and dipped it in olive oil. Wow! My family made it disappear. Thanks for the great content.
Nice one! :))
I was wondering if I could do this as we loved garlic! I'll definitely try it tonight
Excelent videos and recepe. One thing wonders me, what kind of salat is in the right bottom corner? It's looking tasty. :)
It's just cucumber, tomato, spring onions, coriander, oil, lemon juice, salt & pepper :)

Great video! please do a cheese naan recipe as well, thanks again!
Thank you 🙏🏻 For sure I will! Thanks for the tip 😉
Hey Charlie, what can i replace the yogurt with for a vegan? more milk or butter (vegan of course )
i will definitely make this with vegan tikki masala or vegan curry (in curry i replace the yogurt with coconut milk from a can the thick kind)
You can replace it with any liquid. Just keep in mind that you will need to use slightly less as yogurt is made up of around 90% water.
@@ChainBaker perfect ty so much im making Tikka Masala so perfect timing, you're awesome Charlie
@@ChainBaker These have quickly become a staple in my house whenever making curries or tikka masala, just awesome
i wanted to try it with whole wheat flour not white, would you bump up the liquid in the recipe, otherwise i think it would be too dry with whole grain ? ;)
I like the sea salt “ it’s nice”
Can I use all purpose flour instead of bread flour? I'm having a hard time finding bread flour.
Certainly. Lower the amount of milk to 90g.
No cilantro/ green coriander in your naan butter topping mate?
You can put what ever you want on your naan 👍
Can i use all purpose flour instead of bread flour?
You can. But make this instead, it's the new and improved version th-cam.com/video/ihyA3CwJBQs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0PhiUbraAT1EeW0r
@@ChainBaker thanks!
Love your videos
Thank you so much 🙏😊
Yes it’s me again, can you use sour cream or crème fraîche if you do not have yogurt?
You could, but then dilute it with water at a 50/50 ratio I'd say because soured cream may be way fattier.
@@ChainBaker bist du Deutscher? Or Austrian?
Latvian 😄 I used to speak fluent German when I was younger. Now I only understand it, but can't get a proper sentence out 😄
