Instructions
For the Naan
- Warm water and milk to 110°F/43⁰C. Sprinkle yeast and sugar on top of the liquid and allow to sit for 5-10 minutes or until the mixture begins to form bubbles,
- In bowl of Deluxe Stand Mixer, combine mixture with the yogurt, oil, flour, baking powder and salt. Mix until the dough comes together with your hands,
- Set Deluxe Stand Mixer to KNEAD for three minutes, up to five minutes until dough has formed a ball. Alternatively, you can knead by hand,
- Lightly brush the mixing bowl with a small bit of oil,
- Place dough back into to the bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel, allow dough to rest at room temperature for about an hour, until doubled in size.
- Use a Bench Scraper to cut the dough into 10 equal pieces (approximately 3.6 ounces each). Roll into balls, then use a Rolling Pin to roll each piece of dough into a large oval, about 6-inches long and 1/8-inch thick. Repeat with remaining dough.
- Add ½ teaspoon of oil to 8"(20-cm) Signature Nonstick Fry Pan or 10”Cast Iron Skillet over medium-high heat.
- Place one piece of the dough into the pan, cooking until bubbles form on top, about 1-2minutes. While cooking, brush the top with a little oil.
- Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until large golden spots appear on the bottom.
- Remove from the skillet and keep warm in oven on the lowest temperature, until all are cooked.
For the Garlic Butter
- Add pressed garlic to butter in Silicone Prep Bowl; microwave 30 seconds or until melted,
To Serve
- Brush naan with garlic butter and top with cilantro or parsley if desired.
