Sister Shameela Sadek requested for Rey's naan recipe after I posted a picture of it on facebook. No soup, kitchro or haleem is complete without freshly baked home made naan. Simply follow the easy steps below and you are guaranteed bakery fresh naan that will leave your family and friends totally impressed.

                                1. Add 2 ounce of butter and 2 tablespoons sugar in a mixing bowl

                                2. Beat the butter and sugar together until it forms a creamy
                                    consistency. Then add one egg to the mixture and beat well

                                3. Now add 4 and a half cups of flour to the mixture.

                                5. Add 1 teaspoon salt

                                6. Add 1 teaspoon sawmf (fenel)

                                8. Add 600ml of a milk and water mixture (300ml water with
                                    300ml milk). Warm the milk water mixture in the microwave
                                    before adding to the flour.

                                9. Knead the dough into a soft smooth consistency as depicted
                                    above. Now cover the dough with a cloth and allow to rise.

                                10. Divide the contents of the dough into three portions. Pat each
                                       portion into a round tray as illustrated above.

                                11. Brush egg over the dough.

                                12. Now sprinkle sesame seeds (tal seeds) over the dough.Allow
                                      the dough to rise further before baking in the oven at 220 degrees
                                      until golden brown.

                                13. The end product.
