Ingredients Serving: 8

2 cups of whole wheat flour
2 tbsp yeast
1 1/2 cups of milk ; warmed up with a tsp of sugar dissolved
1 tbsp black seeds
1 tbsp sesame seeds
2 tbsp Oil
1 tbsp parsley flakes
1/2 a cup of coriander ; finely chopped
1/2 a cup of spinach ; finely chopped
1/2 a cup of purslane (kulfa)
2 tbsp of fenugreek leaves(methi)
A tsp of salt

Instructions

Warm up the milk and add in the sugar . Once it is dissolved , sprinkle the yeast over the top and set aside in a warm place .
Chop up all your leafies to fine texture so that they are easily incorporated into the dough .
In a large bowl , add the wheat flour along with the leafies and salt and the seeds . Give it all a mix with the oil as well .
With the addition of yeast milk , mix the flour well with your bare hands .
Set it aside in a warm place.
Once done , start by making portions . This dough makes about 16 - 18 naans .
On a lightly floured surface , mould each section into an oval shape , It is easier to use hands to give them the right shape without much flour and it does not take up much time either . Just make sure that they are about half an inch thick .
Do so with all your sections and let them rest for 20 mins in a warm place .
On a medium flame , apply butter on either side and fry like how you would the rotis .
Serve hot with some extra butter on the side or a great curry to go with !
