Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine 2 teaspoons of active dry yeast, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and ¾ cup of warm water. Let sit for about 10 minutes until frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. Make a well in the center and add the activated yeast mixture, ¼ cup of plain yogurt, and 2 tablespoons of oil. Mix until dough forms, then knead for 10 minutes.
- Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let rise for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch the risen dough down, divide it into 8 pieces, and roll each into an oval shape, about ¼ inch thick.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, grease it lightly, and cook each naan for about 1 minute per side until golden and charred.
- After cooking, brush each naan with a mixture of melted butter and minced garlic, garnish with cilantro or parsley, and keep warm.
