Dough

Garlic Butter

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add the yogurt, activated yeast mixture, and olive oil into the well. Mix until a dough starts to form.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  5. 5

    Let Dough Rise

    Place the kneaded dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.

Garlic Butter Preparation

  1. 6

    Melt Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat.

  2. 7

    Add Garlic and Parsley

    Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and chopped parsley. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.

Cheese Filling Preparation

  1. 8

    Combine Cheeses

    In a bowl, mix together the shredded mozzarella and crumbled feta cheese until well combined.

Naan Cooking

  1. 9

    Shape the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 6-8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and let rest for 10 minutes.

  2. 10

    Roll and Stuff

    On a floured surface, roll out each ball into a flat circle about 6-8 inches in diameter. Place a generous amount of the cheese filling in the center, fold the edges over to seal, and then roll it out again gently to flatten.

  3. 11

    Cook the Naan

    Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Cook each naan for about 2-3 minutes on each side until puffed and golden brown. Brush the cooked naan with garlic butter while hot.

  4. 12

    Serve

    Serve warm with additional garlic butter on the side.
