{Naan}

This is so yummy to go along side your favorite Indian dish. This is just plain Naan (Indian Flatbread) but I have seen people incorporate fresh Cilantro into the dough or sprinkle with garlic powder to give it different flavors. Either way you will love it!




















  • 1 package active dry yeast
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 2 Tbs warm water
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 Tbs vegetable oil
  • 2 Tbs plain yogurt
  • 2/3 cup warm milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water with sugar. Let stand about 10 minutes, until frothy.

  • Start to mix the dough by adding the flour, salt, baking powder, oil, yogurt and warm milk in a separate bowl. Stir in the yeast mixture.

Knead the dough together until you have a soft, pliable dough. About 3-4 minutes. Place the ball of dough into a lightly oiled bowl and let rest for 30 minutes.

Pinch off 8 equal sized balls and roll with a rolling pin into circle or oval shapes until 1/8 inches thick.

Heat a griddle to 400 degrees and cook both sides until slightly fluffy and have formed brown spots on the bottom. About 2 minutes per side. Brush with melted butter while still hot, sprinkle the tops with kosher salt.
