This Indian flatbread is made with a soft dough enriched with yogurt and yeast, cooked in a skillet and brushed with garlic butter. It is ideal for scooping up curry and other spiced dishes.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Knead the dough

15 min

Dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water and let stand for 10 minutes. Add the flour, salt and yogurt, then knead until a soft dough forms.

2

Let the dough rise

60 min

Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about one hour, until doubled in size.

3

Shape and cook in a skillet

20 min

Divide the dough into balls and roll each one into a teardrop shape. Cook in a very hot skillet until bubbles form and charred spots appear, then flip and cook the other side.

4

Brush and serve

5 min

While the naan is hot, brush it with melted butter mixed with crushed garlic. Serve right away.

Reminder

Important: The skillet should be very hot so the naan puffs quickly and develops charred spots; a lukewarm skillet can make the dough tough. Contains gluten and dairy. For the best flavor, serve as soon as it is cooked. Wrap leftovers in foil for storage.
