Ingredients:
- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup (120g) Greek yogurt, room temperature
- 1/2 cup (120ml) warm water
- 2 tbsp (28g) melted butter
- 1 tsp (6g) sugar
- 1/2 tsp (3g) baking soda
- 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
- 3 tbsp (42g) melted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the Greek yogurt, warm water, and melted butter.
- Stir with a spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 3–5 minutes until smooth and tacky but not sticking to fingers.
- Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes to relax the gluten.
- Divide the rested dough into 8 equal portions and roll them into smooth balls.
- Using a rolling pin, flatten each ball into an oval shape, roughly 6 inches long and 3-5mm thick.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot; do not add oil.
- Lay one piece of dough into the pan and cook for about 1 minute until bubbles form and the bottom is charred with golden-brown spots.
- Flip the naan and cook for another 30–60 seconds.
- Remove from the pan and immediately brush the surface with the garlic butter glaze (melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro).
- Stack the cooked naan on a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them soft.
