Naan #1 Ingredients
1 cup flour
1 package yeast, dry
2 tsp salt
1 cup water, hot

1 egg, (room temp)

1 tbsp honey, or sugar
2 1/2 cup flour

Naan #1 Directions
* If desired, you can use cornmeal or sesame or poppy seeds on the
bread. Combine 1 cup flour, yeast, and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir in
water, buttermilk, egg, oil and honey. Beat until smooth with an
electric mixer. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft, sticky
dough. Turn onto a floured surface, continue to work in flour until
dough is stiff enough to knead. Knead until smooth and elastic, but
still soft (3 to 5 minutes). Place in an oiled bowl; turning once to
coat top of dough. Cover; let rise until double in bulk (about 45
minutes). Punch dough down. Shape into 16 equal balls. Let rest 5
minutes. Roll out each ball to a 1/4-inch thick round. If desired,
brush with melted butter and sprinkle with garnishes. Set on baking
sheets. Bake at 450 degrees F. for 5 to 8 minutes. NOTE: There is no
second rising in this recipe so that you get flat loaves.

Food Quotes:
Everything I eat has been proved by some doctor or other to be a deadly poison, and everything I don't eat has been proved to be indispensable for life. But I go marching on.
George Bernard Shaw
"Americans can eat garbage, provided you sprinkle it liberally with ketchup, mustard, chili sauce, tabasco sauce, cayenne pepper, or any other condiment which destroys the original flavor of the dish."
Henry Miller, American writer (1891-1980)
