sourdough naan

Sourdough naan is a delicious, soft and chewy flatbread that&#039;s super easy to make with your unfed sourdough starter. Mix the dough in the morning and enjoy fresh, homemade naan in the evening!

Sourdough Naan Flatbread

sourdough starter discard (unfed)

all-purpose flour

milk (dairy

plain yogurt (dairy

olive oil

sea salt

Mix the dough: Mix the wet ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Add the flour and use your hands to incorporate the ingredients until they are well combined and there are no dry bits left in the bowl. The dough will be stiff. Cover the bowl with plastic and let rest at room temperature until doubled in size. In my 68°F ( 20°C) kitchen, it takes roughly 8 hours. Warmer kitchens will take less time, colder kitchens will take more time.

Divide and shape: Turn the dough out onto your work surface and use a bench scraper to divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, about 78g each. Shape each piece into a ball and cover them with a kitchen towel. (At this stage the dough balls can be stored in a covered container, in the fridge for up to 3 days before cooking.)

Preheat skillet: While the dough is resting, preheat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat for 10-15 minutes. If you are worried about sticking, feel free to oil the skillet, but I find it&#039;s not necessary.

Roll dough: Working with one ball of dough at a time, use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a round shape with a 1/8&quot; thickness. Use a little flour if necessary to prevent sticking. The dough rounds should be about 6&quot; in diameter.

Cook naan: Place the rolled dough into the skillet and cook for 2 minutes. Flip the naan over and cook on the second side for 1-2 minutes. Flip the naan one more time and watch for the dough to puff up with air. Once it is full, remove it from the skillet and repeat with the remaining dough. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Sourdough naan is a delicious, soft and chewy flatbread that's super easy to make with your unfed sourdough starter. Mix the dough in the morning and enjoy fresh, homemade naan in the evening! Use this simple, no-knead naan as a side for things such as hummus, soups and stews, pita pocket sandwiches and even flatbread pizza. It's very versatile and freezes beautifully!

Sourdough Naan Recipe

These vegan sourdough naan flatbreads are soft, cushy and so perfect to dunk into spicy curries. You can make them with an active starter or discard.

Sourdough Naan

bread flour

salt ((tweak this to your preference))

sourdough starter ((or discard from a healthy, active starter))

soy milk ((or another non-dairy milk))

oil oil

Place the bread flour in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the salt, mix it in, then add sourdough starter. Mix the sourdough starter into the flour until it is evenly dispersed. Drizzle in the milk and knead until a dough forms. Continue kneading for five more minutes. When finished kneading the dough should feel just slightly tacky to the touch and should be smooth and pliable. If the dough feels too wet, add more bread flour, a tablespoon at a time, until you get the right consistency.

Shape the dough into a smooth ball and place in an oiled bowl. Coat the top of the dough with some oil as well. Set the dough aside in a warm spot in the kitchen.

If you used a strong sourdough starter, the dough should have doubled in a couple of hours. If you used discard, it will take longer, up to eight hours.

Divide the dough into eight equal parts. Roll into smooth balls and set aside, covered with a napkin, for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, use a rolling pin to roll out the naan to a length of about nine inches and a width of six inches. Don&#39;t sweat the shape too much -- a naan is meant to look rustic.

Heat a cast-iron griddle until it&#39;s screaming hot. Place the shaped naan on it. Bubbles should appear all over the naan in a minute or two. Once the underside has golden-brown spots, flip the naan and let it cook a minute or two more. Brush with oil as soon as the naan comes off the griddle. Keep the baked naans wrapped in a kitchen towel while you finish the rest. Serve the naan hot.
