3/4 cup warm water (add more if needed)
2 tsp sugar
1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 garlic cube (like a bouillion) or 2 tsp garlic paste
1 1/2 to 2 tsp salt
4 Tbsp oil
1 1/2 to 2 tsp lemon juice
1/2 cup finely chopped cilantro
2 tsp chopped garlic
1 tsp nigella seeds
extra oil for frying the naan
Proof yeast in water and sugar. Mix flours, garlic cube or paste, salt, oil, and lemon juice. Add the yeast mixture, and mix until smooth*.
Cover with moist cloth and let rise for about 1:30 to 2 hrs.
When dough is double in size, make golf ball size balls. Cover and let rest for 20 mins.
Mix cilantro, garlic and nigella seeds. Take each ball and roll into a 2 inch circle. Press disc onto the cilantro mixture, remove and roll to a 5-6 inch circle.
Heat pan with some oil. Place cilantro side down, and fry until browned and done. Now hold naan with a tong and place the uncooked side directly on the fire. Roast this side until browned. Smear some oil on top of the naan.
*If dough looks too dry then add a little more water.
