Knead your Dough with a Ziplock Bag

If you do not have a hand or stand mixer or a breadmaker and you do not like the idea of using your hands to knead sticky dough, you can prepare it in a ziplock bag.  I agree with Left Brain Craft Brain that it is a fun way to initiate a kid to cook anything that requires dough prepared. 

Watch this video for making Fried Dough Balls" and you will get an idea. 

You can also use the same method to prepare dough for baking bread.  This baker is able to shorten the resting time of the dough by microwing a glass of water for 2 minutes.  She then put the dough in the ziplock bag to rest for 30 minutes in the microwave oven with the glass of heated water.

 

I first came across this idea on Cookrate Facebook page for making Ham and Cheese Bun.  If you are going to use a breadmaker to prepare the dough, you can add the ingredients "3" to "10" in the order I have written it in the following table. 

Cheese Naan and Cheese Bread

I love eating anything with cheese in it.  

I first discovered cheese naan at a Mamak stall, near SMJK Yu Hua Kajang and the MPKj office.  I did not like it as much when I tried it at other stalls.  I think it has to do with the cheese used.

I found a recipe for it on KL Foodie done local mamak stall style and I wonder if I can make it just the way I like it.  This is the recipe.

I found another recipe on Youtube.  

It requires 12 ingredients.  I think I should be able to use my breadmaker to prepare the dough if I use the method shown in the video.

This is a simpler version which requires only 6 ingredients.  It is called Cheese Bread.

Baking powder is used instead of yeast.

Onion Paratha

I am always on a look out for easy to cook method for an otherwise time consuming dish. 

No kneading is required for this Onion Paratha recipe as it is made with liquid dough. 

These are the ingredients and method to cook it:

The second option is to buy ready made frozen Paratha with Onion from Kawan.  I like it that they have shared other ways you can make use of their Paratha in this video.
