Ingredients
- 1 1/5 lb self‑rising flour
- 1 2/5 lb blended low‑fat cottage cheese
- 2 tbsp salt
- 3 tbsp garlic paste
Instructions
- 1Measure out 550 g of self‑rising flour into a large mixing bowl.
- 2Add 2 tbsp of salt and 3 tbsp of garlic paste to the flour and whisk to combine evenly.
- 3Pour the 620 g of blended low‑fat cottage cheese into the dry mixture.
- 4Stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms; it should pull away from the sides of the bowl.
- 5Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rest for 5 minutes to allow the flour to hydrate.
- 6Divide the rested dough into 24 equal portions (about 30 g each) and roll each piece on a lightly floured surface into a thin circle 3.5–4 inches in diameter.
- 7Preheat a non‑stick skillet over medium heat (about 356°F/350°F).
- 8Place one rolled naan in the hot skillet; cook for 1–2 minutes until the underside shows light brown spots and the bread begins to puff.
- 9Flip the naan and cook the other side for another 1–2 minutes, then remove and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining pieces, adjusting the heat as needed to avoid burning.
- 10Stack the cooked naans on a plate and cover loosely with foil to retain softness.
- 11Serve the naan warm, or let them cool completely before storing in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
