Ah no, Garp, too simplistic : you forgot to factor in the linguistic background of the speaker. Take "You ain't nebber hear Lord Jesus say nuttin' 'bout got to play" for example :  just counting the negatives gives no clue as to whether the final statement is about a factual or counter-factual assertion ...

(But I did enjoy your final metaphor).

I love this primitive cooking, but these Tavas are well dodgy, it got me again tonight.
Oil, flour and water on your hands, bit slippy lol. ;D ;D Prefer my old Wok for flipping.

Anyhoo, Similar to last night, fine tuned, rolled and dragged much thinner, worked fine.
Keema did try to escape and got a bit close to the flame, but hey! Job done.



All good fun ;D



Keema Naans are even a bit hit and miss in the restaurants, I've seen plenty Keema explode or drop
down inside the Naan (gravity) all heading for the bin.

cheers Chewy

Stunning Chewy, and the bubbling round the edges makes it definitely look the part. Best one yet and for me thats the Keema naan cracked.

Just did a test run of my naans (first time making EVER!! )

Although it did fall into the flame and so I just flipped it over to cook like you would a pancake. It was superbly tasty. I put a bit of garlic butter on it and ate it all before I could get a pic  ::)

Will take some with the "real" ones later  ;D

When I water mine when they're on the cushion I, (as I pass the sink en-route to hob) just run my hand under the tap , shake and then rub the naan all over with the wet hand paying particular attention to the edges. As Chris says in the video, this is what makes it stick to the tawa. Also with the non stick tawa give the cushion a swirl round the edges of the naan once on the tawa with a bit pressure to make sure its sticks. And more importantly for us - a photo  ::) although i can't remember how many times I've made something that looks good and the photo seems only to be remembered once I've ate it, ie my pathia the other night.

Thanks Gav ;)
Yes, thats enough Keema Naans for me, shame you can't freeze them.

Going to do some Pane al Cioccolato Naan, when I get some Nutella. :P

Have to be later in the week though, as I'm very busy grafting ::)
Sawdust in the flour might not go down well.

cheers Chewy

Hey, I've had naans that taste like they have been made with sawdust. One particularly springs to mind from an Indian restaurant in Blairgowrie Scotland in the late 80's for which you could have soled shoes with. Plus it weighed a ton. Curry was memorably bad as well.

The Pane al Cioccolato Naan could be a winner though with the amount of Crepe Nutella I've seen consumed in France. Now with a splash of Grand Marnier, hmmmmmm :P :P :P

Tear n' Share Naantella  :)

Pane al cioccolato isn't French (unless it's the Geordie equivalent).

Sounds revolting: one step too far :)

I know that, I just mentioned the french and the crepe nutella as a comparison and one step to far for me (and I'm saddled with the embarrassment being half a haggismuncher) is a deep fried mars bar. Can I vote for your independence?  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D  ;)

Although the 'North Shields Pacifier' invented by Greggs in the form of a sausage roll is pretty embarrassing.
