| Tonight Len made naan bread based on sourdough starter. The texture is very bread-like and chewy — really good! |
 |
| Salmon, potatoes, and peas with a blend of seeds and spices: cumin, coriander, fennel, turmeric, chili flakes, and nigella — what I made to go with the naan. |
Friday Night Indian Potatoes
The original spice blend was “panch phoran — a blend of 5 whole seeds including cumin, fennel, mustard, nigella and fenugreek seeds,” as well as turmeric and chili flakes, and the original recipe was for just potatoes, to be served with fish. Len says I never actually follow a recipe, and that was true in this case. I’m grateful to Francesca whose blog Almost Italian I always enjoy very much, as well as more photos she posts on Instagram.
The sourdough naan recipe came from this website: https://thegingeredwhisk.com/sourdough-naan/

I am going to have some salmon today too :-) Those sourdough naans look fabulous!
I think the use of the sandwich press is a great idea. I might have to borrow the one that the kids have in storage in our house to try that. Great spice combination.
Looks so delicious! I like the idea of potatoes in curry.
I meant to say that we really enjoy making our own naan bread.
Wow, the salmon dish looks and sounds fantastic!
Hello,
I would love to try the sourdough naan bread. The salmon and potatoes looks yummy too. Thanks for sharing the link. Have a great weekend. Thanks for visiting my blog.
We love salmon!
I love salmon, John is a bit more iffy on it. He prefers white fish like haddock.
I almost never follow a recipe word for word, I'll substitute when I don't have something.
I'm still working on a gluten free naan bread.
Mae,
Your meal looks very inviting. We are big fans of Indian cooking, but I don't really have the feel or the spices necessary to cook it. I haven't had salmon since the Pandemic!
What wonde3rful spices in that meal. It looks delicious!
I absolutely LOVE naan bread. It is wonderful. Never had homemade, though. Loved reading about the spices. I have all except the nigella, which I've never heard of.
My husband tried a paleo naan recipe this week. Coconut flour and coconut milk were the main ingredients. They came out more like pancakes than bread. Certainly not what I would call naan (which I love). I love Indian food and almost Indian food, and yours looks great!
