Rum raisin naan bread served

Rum Raisin Naan

The combination of raisins and rum has long been known in the world of desserts, but as a naan filling, it's a real novelty. The raisins soaked in alcohol swell and become a pleasantly aromatic filling that harmonizes surprisingly well with the soft, warm naan dough. During baking, most of the alcohol evaporates, leaving only the flavor, which enriches the entire dessert experience. And the melted butter further enhances the silkiness of the texture and the softness of the naan. Tip: don't use the raisins straight from the package - soaking them in rum is important not only for the flavor, but also because it prevents them from drying out the dough. This naan can be an excellent dessert for entertaining or a festive breakfast, especially on cold days.

    Preparation Steps

    1

    Soak the raisins in the rum for at least 30 minutes. This will allow them to plump up and absorb the flavor. Drain the raisins, but reserve the rum.

    2

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.

    3

    Add the yogurt, lukewarm water, olive oil, and the reserved rum. Knead into a smooth dough for about 10 minutes.

    4

    Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

    5

    Divide the risen dough into 6 equal portions. Shape them into balls, then roll them out into oval shapes.

    6

    Sprinkle the soaked and drained raisins on one half of each rolled-out naan. Fold the other half over the raisins, then gently roll again to seal.

    7

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the naans for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown spots appear.

    8

    Immediately brush the hot naans with melted butter – this will make them soft and shiny.

    9

    Serve warm, plain or with a dollop of plain yogurt. The aroma and flavor of the rum-soaked raisins offer a fantastic experience.

    Tip: For an even more intense flavor, you can soak the raisins in rum the night before and store them in the refrigerator.
