NAAN BREAD/BUTTER NAAN


NAAN BREAD/BUTTER NAAN

This homemade naan / Indian Flat bread can be made without tandoor. It can be made in a tawa as tawa naan or can be made in an oven.

There are two secrets in making a perfect naan, one is patience and a lot of that and the second is high heat. Traditionally naan is made in tandoors or clay ovens where the temperatures can go from 600-800 deg celcius so we want to use as high heat as possible. If using a oven use the maximum temperature setting there.

Am sure your friends and family would be amazed by your skills at making this restaurant quality naan right at home.

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.

AMRITSARI CHOLE MASALA/AMRITSARI CHANNA MASALA

AMRITSARI CHOLE MASALA/AMRITSARI CHANNA MASALA Amritsari Chole  are traditional Amritsar style spicy  Chole  Recipe made using freshly ground  chole  masala. The curry has a slightly darker hue due to tea bags that are used while boiling the  chole . This taste so delicious with battura or roti. I made some black tea, strained it and used that in this recipe. If you have those tea bags, throw few when cooking chana in the pressure cooker. The more tea bags you add the more black your chana will be. But don't use too much, else your chana will be bitter. Hope you will give this try and let me know how it turns out for you.
