Method |
Heat the yeast and soak in 1/3 cup warm water with a pinch of sugar and leave for 10 minutes.
Warm milk on a slow fire till a skin forms on the surface, then remove from fire.
Mix sugar, salt and milk. The yeast should rise and become frothy in 10-20 minutes, When milk is tepid, add to yeast and stir with a wooden spoon.
Add ghee or melted butter, egg, milk and yeast to flour. Knead very well to make a pliable dough that is not too soft. Leave to rise in a covered bowl.
In about 2 hours when the dough has risen, make 6 seperate balls of the dough. Pat each one into a thick flat round bread about 1/2" thick and 6" wide and leave aside for another hour to rise again. Spread a little ghee and milk on top of each to keep them soft.
Bake in oven at 230C or 450F, Gas mark 7 for 20 mins or until the top becomes reddish brown.
