Coriander Naan Bread

Happy Thursday guys! Recipe of the day is Coriander Naan Bread – delicious, herby & buttery bread that is definitely one of our family’s favourite. 👌

Coriander Naan Bread

I make this lovely bread weekly and I assure you, it’s very simple but tastes amazing. It’s perfect with dips, olives, cheese, curries and on its own. The original recipe is from here https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/naan-bread. It calls for nigella seeds which I used in the beginning but the kids didn’t really fancy them. They didn’t really mind the coriander though so I swapped them around.

What you need:

  • flour
  • butter
  • yogurt
  • coriander
  • baking powder
  • yeast
  • sugar
  • salt

Here’s how to make the Coriander Naan Bread:

Ingredients:

  • 300g strong white bread flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2tsp salt
  • 2tsp caster sugar
  • 7g dry yeast
  • 150ml yogurt
  • 25g butter
  • 30g coriander, chopped
  • 2-3tbsp extra butter for brushing

Preparation:

  • In a bowl, mix the yeast, 1tsp of the sugar and bout 125ml lukewarm water. Leave on a side.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, the rest of the sugar and salt. Make a well in the middle and add the yogurt, melted butter and yeast mixture. Stir everything together. Transfer to a flour-dusted worktop and start kneading. If necessary add more flour or water, depending on how dry/wet the dough is.
  • When the dough is soft and elastic, transfer it to a bowl, greased with some butter or oil. Cover with cling film and leave for an hour or until doubled its size.
  • Divide it into 6 balls and roll them out into naan breads or teardrop shape.
  • Heat a pan and dry fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side.
  • Brush with butter and serve warm.

Enjoy!
