The secret is in the crust. Mix ‘ice’ chilled water into the dough and avoid kneading it too much so it stays light. Pre-heat oven at 375ºF (190ºC) then it’s 15 minutes at 375ºF followed by 45 minutes at 350ºF (170ºC).

    Ingredients

  • For the filling:
  • 4 large ‘Golden Delicious’ apples
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • Cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon of flour
  • 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • For the pie crust:
  • 2 cups of flour
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 2/3 cup of shortening
  • Ice water
  • Sugar to sprinkle on top

According to Jemeela much better than naans from the shop. Mix the ingredients in a large mixing bowl (she uses a pan pot.) knead the dough, leave to raise for 20 mins and bake for a few minutes in 200ºc-220ºc oven. That makes 8 lovely naan breads.

    Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon of yeast
  • 3 cups of white bread flour
  • 2 tablespoons of sunflower oil
  • 4 tablespoons of low fat yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon of honey
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 3/4 cup of warm water
  • flour to knead
