Here’s a quick and easy recipe for 10-Minute No-Oven Bread—soft, fluffy, and made right on a pan (tawa):
🍞 10-Minute No-Oven Bread
🧾 Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (maida)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon oil or melted butter
- ~3/4 cup milk (or water)
🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Make the Dough
- In a bowl, mix:
- Flour, baking powder, salt, sugar
- Add oil and mix
- Gradually add milk and knead into a soft dough
👉 Let it rest for 5 minutes (optional but helps softness)
2️⃣ Shape the Bread
- Divide dough into small portions
- Roll each into a flat round or oval shape (like naan or roti)
3️⃣ Cook on Pan (Tawa)
- Heat a pan on medium heat
- Place bread on the hot pan
- Cook until bubbles form, then flip
- Press lightly and cook until golden spots appear on both sides
4️⃣ Optional Finish
- Brush with butter or ghee for extra softness and flavor
🍽️ Serving Ideas
- With curry, eggs, or chicken
- Use as wraps or sandwiches
- Serve with butter, honey, or jam
💡 Tips
- Don’t make the dough too hard—soft dough = soft bread
- Medium heat is key (too high burns, too low dries it out)
- Add garlic, herbs, or sesame seeds for extra flavor
If you want, I can also show you a yeast-free fluffy naan version or a stuffed version (cheese, potato, or chicken) using this same quick dough.
