Master the Art of Homemade Naan: A Chef's Secret Recipe


Category: Bread - (951)
Origin: India
Source: MAKINZE GORE


Naan is a traditional South Asian flatbread that is usually cooked in a tandoor oven. The yogurt-based bread quickly bubbles up and yields a soft bread with slightly crisp edges. It's perfect for soaking up all of that extra sauce from chicken tikka masala or served as an Indian appetizer along with garlic hummus or any of your favorite dips. Servings: 8


Ingredients:
- 1/2 c. lukewarm water
- 2 tsp. granulated sugar
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 1 3/4 c. all-purpose flour, plus more for surface
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/2 c. full fat greek yogurt
- Vegetable oil, for cooking
Preparation:
Step 1
In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, combine lukewarm water and sugar. Sprinkle yeast on top and let sit until frothy, about 8 minutes.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Add yeast mixture and yogurt and use a rubber spatula to combine. Once a shaggy dough starts to form, dump onto a clean work surface and knead with your hands until a smooth dough forms. Transfer to a clean bowl and cover with a kitchen towel. Let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Step 3
On a floured surface, divide dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each out into a 7” circle. Keep dough covered with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 4
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan. Working one at a time, cook dough until blistered and dark golden in spots, about 3 minutes per side. Adjust heat and add more oil as needed.
