Ingredients

Naan Dough

Preparation

Preparation of Naan

1. Activate Yeast

In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 10 minutes until frothy.

2. Make Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the activated yeast mixture, yogurt, and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

3. Knead Dough

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth. Place it in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.

4. Prepare Garlic Topping

Finely chop fresh garlic and cilantro. Set aside.

5. Shape Naan

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten each ball into an oval shape, about 1/4 inch thick.

6. Add Garlic

Sprinkle the chopped garlic and cilantro over one side of each naan and gently press to adhere.

7. Bake Naan

Preheat your tandoor oven or a pizza stone in your regular oven at the highest setting. Bake each naan for 2-3 minutes, or until puffed and lightly charred.

8. Serve

Remove from the oven and brush with melted butter or ghee if desired. Serve warm.
