Jeena's Wholewheat Naan Bread

This recipe worked a treat for me today. It is wholewheat naan bread that is as soft and fluffy as a white naan. It is healthy to eat with curry's,stews, soups or even opened up with a delicious filling added. This Wholewheat Naan Bread Recipe is simple and quick to make so why not give it a try. :)

approx 1/2 to 3/4 Sachet Yeast

1/4 tsp Salt

1 tsp White Sugar

Splash Milk

Hot Water

7-8 Tbsp Wholewheat Flour

3 Tbsp Plain Flour
3 Tbsp Yogurt
1/2 tsp Bicarbonate Soda

Put a splash of cold milk into a cup.

Stir in your sugar then add enough hot water to warm your milk up.(you won't need much hot water here)

Add your yeast, stir then leave for a few minutes while you prepare your other ingredients.

Sieve your wholemeal flour into a bowl.

You should be left with some bran left over.

Do not discard the left over bran. Put it to the side for later.

Add your plain flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt and stir.

Add your bran and stir.

`
By now your yeast should have fluffed up.



Take another cup and put your yogurt into it with a tiny splash of hot water to warm through the yogurt. Now add your yogurt to your flour. Also Gradually add your yeast mixture and stir well.

You may need to gradually add more flour if it is too sticky. Knead your dough for a few minutes preferably 5 minutes.

Grease your bowl then over and leave for 30 minutes or until your dough has doubled in size. If your room is quite cool make sure you leave it to rise in a warm place.

Once your dough has doubled in size it should feel soft and light and fluffy.

Shape your breads with your hands and place onto a greased and floured baking tray. Put into a hot oven at approx 220C for 10 minutes or until golden.

For a more pita style bread roll out with a rolling pin into a thinner shape.

Enjoy Jeena's Wholewheat Naan Bread with soup, curry, stew or fill it with your favourite yummy filling! I opened mine up and ate it with some leerdamma cheese and it was delicious.
