Ingredients Serving: 2

Refined flour 1 3/4 cup
Milk 1 teaspoon
Sugar 3 teaspoons
Yeast Dissolved in water 1 tablespoon
Yogurt 2 tablespoons
Ghee 3 tablespoons
Milk 1 cup
Oil 1 tablespoon
Sesame seeds 1 tablespoon

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Sift the refined flour into a bowl and add salt. Add the sugar, yeast and yogurt and mix well.
Add two tablespoons ghee and knead well into a smooth dough by adding milk. Set aside the dough for fermentation.
Brush oil on the dough and divide it into equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. Roll out each ball of dough to a round shape that is thicker at the edges.
Using only your finger tips press lightly to make groves all around. Place the taftan on a baking tray and sprinkle sesame seeds on it.
Cook in the preheated oven or in a hot tandoor for 10- 12 minutes, basting with the remaining ghee once halfway through the cooking. Serve hot
