Garlic Naan
30 mins
3 hrs
12 flatbreads
Steps
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a glass measuring cup, combine the yeast, sugar, and water and let sit for 10 minutes. In the meantime, mix the flour, baking soda, and baking powder in a large bowl.
- Whisk together the yeast mixture, yogurt, and milk and stir into the dry ingredients.
- Knead with your hands until the dough forms a smooth, soft ball, about 2 minutes. Place the dough in an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Leave at room temperature until doubled in size, about 2 hours.
- Remove the dough from the bowl and turn onto a well-floured surface. Knead it briefly and divide the dough into 12 equal portions.
- Roll it into 1/4-inch-thick ovals, approximately 6 inches wide.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over moderately high heat. Sprinkle each portion with minced garlic and press it into the dough.
- Brush the dough with melted butter and place in skillet. Cook for about one minute, until the dough puffs up.
- Flip, cover the pan, and cook for one more minute.
- Remove from the pan, brush both sides with butter, and sprinkle with salt. Place in a towel-lined bowl until ready to serve.
