Instructions
Step 1
To begin making the Jowar Garlic Naan Recipe, Let us make the dough
Step 2
To make the dough, in a mixing bowl, combine the jowar flour, wheat flour, methi leaves, yeast, salt and sugar
Step 3
Start by making the dough with all the yoghurt and then add a little water at a time and only use required amount of water to make a firm dough
Step 4
Add a teaspoon of oil to coat the dough and knead for a few more minutes until smooth
Step 5
Set the dough aside to rest covered for 2 hours
Step 6
After 2 hours, knead once again and divide the dough into equal portions
Step 7
Preheat the iron griddle on medium high heat
Step 8
Roll the portions of dough into balls; flatten these balls with the palm of your hand
Step 9
Take a portion of the dough, toss it on the flour and roll out into oval shape
Step 10
As you roll them out, you can keep tossing the dough in dry flour while rolling; this will prevent it from getting sticky when rolling them out
Step 11
After the first roll of the dough ball, sprinkle some garlic on the surface of the dough , lightly press it down and begin to roll it again
Step 12
Once you got a nice oval shaped naan of medium thickness, transfer it on the hot griddle
Step 13
Let it cook for 2-3 minutes
Step 14
Then flip the Jowar Garlic Naan and smear about 1/2 a teaspoon of ghee
Step 15
Using a flat spatula do a light pressing and turning motion to cook to the naan
Step 16
Flip to the other side and press and turn the naan in a similar way, smear ghee once again
Step 17
You will notice brown spots around the naan and it will be slightly crisp
Step 18
Remove from heat and place on a platter and serve hot
Step 19
Continue the similar process with the remaining rolled portions and serve hot
