For Cooking

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

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

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the frothy yeast mixture, Greek yogurt, and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

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

  5. 5

    First Rise

    Place the 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.

Herb Infusion

  1. 6

    Prepare Rosemary

    While the dough is rising, finely chop the fresh rosemary leaves.

Shaping and Cooking

  1. 7

    Incorporate Rosemary

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and knead in the chopped rosemary until evenly distributed.

  2. 8

    Shape Naan

    Divide the dough into equal portions (about 6). Roll each portion into a ball and then flatten it into an oval shape, about 1/4 inch thick.

  3. 9

    Cook Naan

    Heat a skillet or tandoor over medium-high heat. Cook each naan for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until puffed and golden brown.

  4. 10

    Brush with Butter

    Once cooked, remove the naan from the skillet and brush with melted butter while still warm.
