Well did they taste as good as they looked?

No,

Well the taste was OK but stodgy in the middle so next time will make the balls flatter and probably put raisins in as they tasted more like scones to me.

I was still impressed with myself

We made a loaf today with the Greek yoghurt, remarkably easy to make and bake, they do taste a little like a cake, but very good nevertheless. No yeast, kneading or waiting required, I would imagine easy to make in a moho, many thanks for the recipe.

Tonight we had home mad e curry with home made nans with this recipe, Julie put garlic in hers , I put sultanas and decicated coconut in mine , and so we had garlic nan and Peshawar nan, not up to Indians but the best we have ever home-made.

Snap apart from one garlic and one plain, definitely a MoHo recipe.

Well done, by looking at those I would say they needed a little more time. As with most bread recipes, to test to see if cooked, pick one up and tap underneath, if hollow sound, they should be done. Give them another go, experiment.

Wife told me that and they seemed good, only to be proven wrong. I will have another go next week, if only to annoy the wife

chaser - never made naans. When do you put in the garlic, & do you cook them in a frying pan?

No just make the dough, then mix your other ingredients in, and shove it in the oven same as before, but must stress they don't come out like restaurant nans but the best substitute we have ever done, and as others have said, give them plenty cooking, as long as they aren't burning, don't be in a rush to take them out.

I did ours in a dry frying pan, fairly hot takes 3 or 4 mins per side

You can also do this with self raising flour and buttermilk

If you don’t have buttermilk, put some milk in a jug and add quite a bit of lemon juice, it will sort of curdle in about ten minutes, I have used this method twice and find I like the texture better this way, I also added a little baking powder. I am going to add a little salt next time to see what difference it makes.

Well, naan for tea! Tasted lovely, but came out very hard on the outside - thought they hadn’t worked! Soft on the inside tho. Might try them in a dry pan next time! Love that I’m using the left over whey from my homemade yoghurt - waste not, want not!

 

[bigalw35]

As I said in an earlier post it’s very easy to make and DOES taste very good, but after eating it for a couple of days, it gives the wife and I terrible indigestion, so after eating, milk is the order of the day

 

[gwyntaxi]

Looks amazing She doesn’t give quantities though

I find it quite irritating and can’t understand why they post it without giving ingredient quantities, they are really important.

 

[bigalw35]

It’s equal amounts, sr flour yoghurt and a little salt

Quite simple ,same quantity however much you do.

Haven't had chance to read the whole thread, but another idea. Sorry if it is repeated.

To make a traditional bread, put it in the slow cooker. Of course this uses yeast, but it is very easy. Plenty of recipes on the 'Net. just a brown under the grill or if the crock can stand the over, in there for about 30 minutes to brown.

chaser did my naan in a hot frying pan today, & it was lovely! Harder on the outside than I’m used to, but soft inside! Just mixed garlic in when I made the dough!

 

[Chrisreay]

The two greedyments of 5 parts gin to 1 part tonic does it for me.

My Mother, who only lived to 98, had the same attitude to gin and tonic. I've begun my gin journey with this in mind.

Did this tonight, brilliant

I’ve made these a couple of times, I started with equal quantities, by volume of flour and yoghurt. I found the mix a bit sticky and ended up with approx 1 ½ cups of flour to 1 of yoghurt, just adding extra flour till it was a more bread dough consistency. The first had a great consistency but was a bit bland, with the next batch added a large pinch of salt - perfect!
Thoroughly recommend this easy “bread”.

Made some rolls again last night, about a third of the flour was wholemeal. Mixed white wine vinegar to my milk to create buttermilk instead of using Greek yogurt, also added some salt. Devided the mixture and made six plain rolls (These tasted more like the bread we know), weren’t too dense as we thought they might be, then rolled some grated cheese in the remainder and got another four rolls. For amounts, I just put flour into a bowl and add the liquid to Get the right consistency. Just experimenting.

Any gluten free peeps out there? I've tried this with gluten free flour (half 'plain' half buckwheat) as Mrs TWbm has found after 50 years of being fobbed off by doctors that's better for her system. It works, but so far all attempts have looked good but been on the stodgy side despite increased amounts of baking soda. Any tips?

 

[Sundowners]

When you say baking soda, do you mean baking powder or bicarbonate of soda. I use baking powder, but not too much, I don’t like the taste. Put more flour in if too wet and cook a little longer.

This is a picture of the part wholemeal roll the next morning.

 

[Welsh girl]

That's something I'll have to try

Good point .. baking powder, and will try a dryer mix, thank you.

I used a Nigella recipe for bread, worked well

 

[Mrs Trackman]

Very excited by this recipe. I've made all of my own yeast bread for nearly 50 years. Since covid began, I've got into sourdough, it takes for ever but I'm not doing anything else and i love the process and the taste.
I tried this recipe last night, I used about a third wholemeal SR flour to two thirds white SR and a pinch of salt plus the Greek yoghurt. I found one to one far too sticky and so added a lot of extra flour, I didn't really knead it much, just got it together. I rolled it very thin then cooked it in a hot frying pan with a small amount of olive oil but will try without the oil. I thought it was absolutely brilliant. quick to do and loved the taste and texture. Definitely a good one for when in a campervan. Thanks for the recipe.

 

[philann]

I made some yesterday, added chocolate chips, formed the rolls, then pushed a caramel filled chocolate egg into the top of each roll and baked, delicious!

 

[Sundowners]

I love to hear about all these experiments, don’t know until you try. I am a bit of this and a bit of that cook, so if something turns out good, I have to try and remember how and what I did with it.

Keep them coming.

 

[Gaston aires]

I’ll have to give it a try. I love kneading dough. It really cleans your finger nails.
