Just made garlic naan bread and as usual it was perfectly acceptable for eating but not really like a naan should be. Mine is like bread in the centre and generally quite crusty. I think it should be much softer and elastic.
My recipe today was plain flour, yogurt, dried yeast, sugar, black onion seeds, chopped garlic in oil.
Started the yeast in warm water and sugar
Added to flour with extra warm water and tablespoon of yogurt, added black onion seeds. Knead well. Dough was on sticky side. Leave couple of hours to rise. Shape and roll garlic into top.
Place 2 heavy cast iron baking trays into oven at 500 degrees and bake naans for 10 mins or so.
Except for not cooking in a tandoor what am I doing wrong.
