Afghani Feteer Naan | Afghani Naan || How to Make Feteer Piyazi Naan with step-by-step photos 

Afghani Feteer Naan is a multilayered flatbread that is soft, fluffy, and oval-shaped. It is filled with salty onions and fresh coriander leaves. By using butter in each layer, the naan becomes incredibly tender and airy.

 

This bread can best be described as a cross between a croissant and a paratha. It’s light, flaky, buttery, and pairs wonderfully with a cup of tea, jam, kebabs, or simply enjoyed on its own. Baked in the oven, the aroma of this bread fills the house, making it hard to resist.

 

I have tried many times to make the perfect naan, but I struggled to achieve that ideal fluffiness and softness. Eventually, I realised where I had been making my mistakes.

                   

Kneading the perfect dough is essential for achieving soft and fluffy naan. This principle applies to all types of soft bread, including chapatis and parathas, which depend heavily on the kneading process. 

For kachoris and puris, however, you need to prepare a slightly harder dough than you would for naan, bread, or parathas. You can find my naan dough recipe in my previous post.

                               

Recipe tips:

The weight of each naan dough ball should be approximately 200 grams. Using dough that weighs less than 200 grams may result in naan that is not soft or fluffy. 

 

Avoid using a rolling pin or dusting the naan with flour, as this can cause it to become stiff. Additionally, do not cook naan over high or medium heat, as it may burn. 

 

Bake the naan for no more than 5 minutes, as baking for longer will make it stiff and dry. It is important to apply butter to the naan right after taking it out of the oven. 

 

You can also make variations of naan by using chicken or mutton mince, or grated cheese with parsley instead of onion. The rest of the preparation method remains the same. 

 

Cooking naan on a Tawa will help keep it soft.

Prepare this recipe first by kneading the dough that I shared in my previous post. You can see from there.

Secondly, take all the veggies and prepare them to keep aside

Wash the onion before cutting; otherwise, your naan can be soggy

Sprinkle some salt over the onion. Mix them with chopped coriander leaves, mix them together, and set aside.

                                                       

Place the naan dough on a working surface, make a hole in the centre of the dough, give it a thick rope shape, and then divide it into equal portions

                          

Take a portion and give it a ball shape, and place it on a tray. 

                                   

Take one ball and roll it approximately 10-12 inches in a round shape, apply melted butter over the rolled roti, then sprinkle flour.r 

Now, put salted onion slices and coriander leaves over the roti, and start rolling till the end. In each roll, apply butter on top; it will look like a roll.

               

Again, gently start rolling the rope like a snail, and press the end in the middle.

                

Place all prepared dough balls on the tray and cover them with a kitchen towel.

                             

In the second method, roll the dough ball with the same method as before, apply melted butter, sprinkle flour, then put onion and coriander over the roti, a bit of a change in rolling the roti, cut the roti from the middle down. 

                   

Roll it like a cone from left to right. Apply butter in each roll until it becomes completely rolled, press it gently, and repeat the same process with the other naan dough too.o  

Now it’s up to you to decide what is easy to apply the method to

                                  

Cover the prepared dough with a kitchen towel and leave it for 15 minutes to rise. While making the naan, turn on the oven at 250 C for 30 minutes.

                             

Take one prepared naan dough, press it gently with an oily hand and give it a naan shape. Pierce the naan with the fork.

                         

Put the naan on a preheated tawa on low-medium heat just for 1-2 minutes till cooked from the bottom.m 

                             

         

Shift the uncooked naan to the baking dish and milk wash on top of the naan.

                   

Put the naan in the preheated oven on the top rack at 250 C for just 5 minutes.

                                      

Take the naan out of the oven.n  

                   

Then apply butter over the naan. Butter makes your naan soft and aromatic.

                   

Again, cover with a kitchen towel for 20 minutes.

                                 

Feteer naan is ready. You can see the perfect soft naan texture in the picture below.

           

             

Afghani feteer naan is ready to serve with tea, cutlets, or kabab.

                                                            

Vanilla Pound Cake Recipe

                                                                        

Pound Cake Recipe || Vanilla Cake Recipe || How to make Vanilla Cake with step-by-step photos and Video

Vanilla Pound Cake is the traditional classic, sweet, super soft tea cake recipe, that is made with a few basic ingredients, but in taste is so good. Cakes can be intimidating to bake, but pound cakes and loaf cakes are much easier and quicker, and this pound cake is a close second favorite to our all-time favorite Chocolate Cake Slices.

I always recommend adding buttermilk to the cake batter because this brings softness and a light, rather dense texture. That I don’t like to eat if you don’t prefer using buttermilk in cake batter, then milk can be used at room temperature. Making a perfect cake depends on accurate measurement. For which you must use a kitchen scale instead of a cup measurement 

Here I wrote by using a kitchen scale measurement, so I will suggest using it to perfect cake results like my recipe. Trust me, after following my recipe, you won’t want to buy a pound cake from the bakery. So soft and sweet cake 

                                                                   

My Latest Recipe Pound Cake Video:  

 

I am not self-promoting; once you try it, you'll see my point. You’ll love making this pound cake recipe on the weekends because it’s great for brunch or to serve with coffee when you’re having friends and family over. You could also make this by replacing the vanilla extract with orange extract, a dusting of powdered sugar, and a teaspoon of orange zest on top.

For the best result, follow my detailed step-by-step photo, video, and instructions tips below. 

Here I will tell you about my experience regarding making a soft cake. that I learned from my mistakes initially

                                        

SOME  TIPS FOR MAKING THE PERFECT POUND CAKE:

1. To make a soft and perfect cake, all ingredients that go into the cake should be at room temperature.
2. Bring your ingredients to room temperature. When mixing the butter and sugar together, wait until they look light and fluffy, about 3 minutes, to make sure enough air has been incorporated. This is a critical part of this pound cake recipe, so be patient here.
3. The egg makes the cake soft and spongy, so if you are vegetarian or vegan or have an allergy, you can replace it with yogurt, but I'll highly recommend using condensed milk instead of yogurt, along with using baking powder and 1/4  baking soda. 
4. If you prefer using yogurt, then ½ tsp use white vinegar along with baking soda and baking powder. These ingredients help to raise the cake properly, and it will remain soft and spongy.y
5. Don’t remove the pound cake from the loaf pan immediately. You want to let the cake cool about halfway, at least 10 minutes, before flipping it out of the pan and letting it come to room temperature.
6. Use butter and flour to grease your pan, not cooking spray, which may prevent the cake from fully rising.
7. Don’t use an electric beater for mixing dry ingredients with batter since the batter has a lot of air bubbles that help to raise the cake; mixing can remove bubbles, and your cake will turn dense and hard.
8. Maintaining the accurate oven temperature is crucial for making soft and light pound cakes. If the temperature is too high, the cake may burn on the outside and remain uncooked on the inside. Conversely, if the temperature is too low, the cake may turn out soggy and dense. The ideal temperature for baking cakes is 180°C.

1. Use a toothpick to check the doneness of your cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready. If it starts browning around the edges, it is over-baked, and your cake will lose a lot of moisture.
2. Using a large quantity of baking powder will make your cake taste spoiled
3. I won’t recommend using a pot to bake a cake, as my result is not as good as it should be, but if you are used to baking cakes in a pot, then keep one thing in mind: the pot should have a wide and thick base  so that it can be properly preheated from all sides  

How to Store Vanilla Pound Cake:

Serve: Once cooled, remove the pound cake from the loaf pan, slice, and serve with any of your favorite toppings or ice cream.

Store: Pound cake will keep at room temperature and tightly sealed for 3-4 days. I don’t usually recommend putting the cake in the refrigerator, but pound cake won’t go stale as quickly due to the density of the cake.

Crack the eggs one by one into the small bowl and then transfer them to the mixing bowl. Start beating the egg at low speed for a few seconds, then add sugar. 

        

Now increase the speed gradually, Beat until the egg mixture turns creamy and fluffy. Once it turns to light and fluffy batter, pour milk and oil, and then start beating once again on low speed, add vanilla essence, and mix slowly with a hand beater.

                                           

Add dry ingredients little by little, and fold the maida slowly by hand; otherwise, the batter may sit. Likewise, finish the maida by putting it into the batter. The batter consistency should be thick, and the pouring state.

                           

Transfer the cake batter to the loaf pan and tap it down to remove excess air. Bake the cake in a preheated oven at 180 Celsius for 40-45 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean.

                       

 

   

Once the pound cake is baked, leave it for 10 minutes. Next, scrape the edges carefully and take the cake out of the loaf pan, and let it cool down completely on a wire rack.

                                               

Once cooled, cut into slices.
