LAHSAN KI DOUBLE ROTI SIMPLE AND EASY
Garlic Bread and Pizza have quite a common history that dates back as far as 500 BC and may be much earlier. Soldiers at that time used their shields as baking pans or hot plates for preparing their bread (Roti) and somehow they covered it with butter, fat or cheese and then some garlic rub.
There is another narrative about the earlier use of Garlic in bread, according to that it is originated in South of Europe where Garlic Plants were in abundance. Because of this, Garlic was used in food in many ways and one of them is this Garlic Bread. Present day Garlic bread is an offshoot of famous Italian Bruschetta which was and still is browned on both sides on hot coals.This Bread was coated liberally with Olive oil. Rubbing the top with Garlic was optional.
Garlic Bread was introduced in the US by the Italian and Mediterranean immigrants and it is popular till date.
Garlic Bread can be made in various styles and kinds, like Crispy, Soft, Herbed and Cheesy It is different in different cultures and countries.
Garlic Bread made with the French Baguette, it tastes great because of its thick crust and also tends to stay frozen much longer.
It is very easy to make and there are no elaborate arrangements for its preparation.
Let us start preparing our Aromatic and very simple Garlic Bread with the name of ALLAH.
THINGS WE NEED:
- 2 Cups All-purpose Flour
- 2 tablespoons Yeast
- 2 Tablespoons Caster Sugar
- 2 Tablespoons Oil
- 2 Tablespoons Butter for Brushing.
- 2 Tablespoons Milk or Water.
- 1 Teaspoon Salt or according to your taste
- 1 Beaten Egg for Brushing
- 8-10 Cloves of finely chopped Garlic
HOW WE ARE GOING TO PREPARE:
- Mix all the ingredients and half of the finely chopped Garlic except beaten egg and butter in the flour.
- Mix it thoroughly and knead with the help of Milk or Water and make a dough.
- Cover it with a moist cloth and leave it to rise at room temperature.
- If it is very cold season then store the dough in a warm place, In a Microwave in off position.
- The dough will rise and will be doubled in size.
- When it is doubled in size take it out and shape it as you like or place it in the middle of a Loaf Pan. Remember, the dough size in the loaf must not touch its sides as it will rise when being baked and a full-size dough will go out of proportions and the Pan. It will also look very ugly.
- Brush the top with beaten egg.
- Place the Pan/dish in the pre heated oven at 180 C and bake for 15 minutes.
- Take it out after the top is golden, make small cuts on the top and apply butter with a brush over it and sprinkle remaining finely chopped garlic all around.
- Put it back in the oven for further 5-6 minutes.
- When the sprinkled garlic turns golden, take the bread out and enjoy when it is cool enough to be eaten.

In many recipes people use garlic powder instead of crushed garlic perhaps powder is more soluble as compared to the crushed garlic; so the question is which tastes better bread made with garlic powder or bread made with crushed garlic?
ReplyDeleteFresh crushed Garlic and Garlic powder has a lot of difference in tatse and aroma. One can feel it by using both in anyway. Crunchy feeling of Fresh Crushed Garlic has a taste of its own. Powder is mostly used in Medicine as well as some curry dishes.
ReplyDeleteAt the same time it depends more on one's taste.
