Naan

Ingredients
3 Cups Plain Flour
1tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Soda Bicarbonate
1 tsp Dry Yeast in 2 tsp Lukewarm Water and 1 tsp Sugar
1/2 Cup Milk
4 tablespoon plain yogurt
1/2 Cup Butter
Method
Sift flour, soda bicarbonate and baking powder together. Add butter and salt. Mix Well. Add yogurt, milk and yeast mixture and knead well to a smooth dough. Cover and leave for 4 hours until dough doubles in size. Take a lime sized ball of dough each time and roll a little on a floured surface. Flatten the rolled ball using both hands and pull the dough, by transferring from one hand to another to form the typical shape of naan. Heat griddle or a heavy bottomed frying pan, which has been greased. Cook naan only on one side on griddle. Transfer the naan directly over reduced gas flame to cook on the other side. Cook until slightly brown. Repeat process with remaining dough. Serve hot sprinkled with parsley.
