Ingredients
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp baking powder
¾ cup plain yogurt
2 tbsp olive oil
½–¾ cup warm water
2 tbsp melted butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
Fresh cilantro, optional
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Make the dough
In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, sugar and baking powder. Add yogurt and olive oil. Gradually pour in warm water while mixing until a soft dough forms.
2. Knead
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
3. Let it rest
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it, and let it rest for 45–60 minutes. This helps create softer naan.
4. Divide the dough
Divide the dough into 6–8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
5. Roll the naan
Roll each ball into an oval or round shape about ¼-inch thick. Don't worry if the shapes aren't perfect.
6. Heat your skillet
Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy pan over medium-high to high heat. The pan should be very hot before cooking.
7. Cook the naan
Place one naan on the hot skillet. Cook for about 1–2 minutes until bubbles appear and the bottom develops brown spots. Flip and cook for another 30–60 seconds.
8. Add garlic butter
Mix melted butter with minced garlic and brush it over the hot naan. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro if desired.
9. Serve immediately
Serve warm with your favorite curry, tikka, dal, or grilled vegetables.
🛒 One Amazon Kitchen Essential
A cast-iron skillet is an excellent choice for homemade naan because it retains high heat and helps create the characteristic browned, slightly blistered surface.
