    apartmentcooker's Notes:

    I love naan, and adding some tasty garnishes only makes it better. You can easily make this without the garlic and cilantro, if you wish.

Makes 6-8 pieces

  1. In a medium bowl (or use a mixer with a dough hook) combine the flour, salt, garlic, cilantro, and yeast. Add the water, yogurt, and butter slowly and mix to combine. Knead the dough for 5-6 minutes (3-4 in a mixer).

    Ask a question about this step
  2. Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl and allow to rise until double in size, about 45 minutes - 1 hour.

    Ask a question about this step
  3. Divide the dough into equal pieces (6-8 depending on the size you want). Use flour as needed to keep the dough from sticking.

    Ask a question about this step
  4. Heat a large saute pan over medium high heat. Brush the rolled out dough with the butter, and cook until browned lightly on each side, 1-2 minutes per side. Finish with a sprinkling of salt. Keep warm until ready to serve.

"Ahhh, that's GOOD!!" said Mr. T, after biting into this delicious bread the other night. That sums it up perfectly. I served this with my Mulligutawny, the recipe for which I'll be posting soon. We'll definitely be making this naan again soon. Thanks for posting this!! ;o)
