Indian Pan Bread image

This bread is fairly quick and easy to make, and only makes 4 pieces which is good if you are not cooking for a crowd. I got this from the Maharishi Ayurveda website www.mapi.com. I have read in many recipes about making the bread puff up, but have never gotten it to work for me...maybe my baking powder is old?? The results are still tasty though! I saved two in the fridge and then heated them up in a non-stick pan the next day, with good results.
