Naan Dough

Method

Naan Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water (110°F/43°C), sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add the activated yeast mixture, yogurt, and oil.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

    Mix the ingredients together until they form a ball. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it for 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    First Rise

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