Easy-Peasy Vegan (not-so) Naan
Apparently I’m not allowed to call it naan, hence the not-so naan. Let’s just call it “quick Indian inspired fluffy homemade bread great for curries and soups” then!
Easy-Peasy Vegan (not-so) Naan
Equipment
- sheet of baking paper
- Rolling Pin Don't have one? Use a wine bottle!
Ingredients
- 150 gram soy yoghurt natural
- 200 gram flour self-rising flour also works
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried coriander
Instructions
- Mix the yoghurt with the flour, baking powder and salt. I prefer to use gloves for this, as it can get quite sticky. Knead it is mixed into a solid ball. Then divide into 4 equal pieces, and roll these into balls again
- Make your herb oil by mixing olive oil, garlic powder and dried coriander.
- And now for the magic: lay out a sheet of baking paper and fold it double. Fold it open again and cover it in lightly in herb oil. Place a ball of dough, fold it in the baking paper and flatten the dough using a rolling pen. Do this for all four balls, adding new oil as you go.
- Bring a frying pan to high heat. Add the naans to the pan (I usually do it 2 by 2), and heat them for a few minutes per side, until they start to brown.
