Directions

1.

No Yeast!

In a large bowl, combine the plain flour and a pinch of salt and mix well to distribute the salt evenly. Add the thick Greek yogurt to the flour mixture. Using a wooden spoon or your hands, gently stir until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour; if it is too dry, add a little more yogurt.

Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Knead the dough for a minute or two until it is smooth and elastic. If necessary, add more flour to keep it from sticking. Put the dough back into the bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and leave it to rise in a warm, draft-free place for at least 1 hour. This will allow the dough to rise and give it its structure.

Fry the Naan!

Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and roll each part into a ball. Flatten each ball with your hands or use a rolling pin to roll into a thin round.

Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle to medium-high heat. Once hot, place one naan in the pan and fry for about 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the bottom is golden brown. Flip the naan over and fry for another 1-2 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown as well. Remove the naan from the pan and set it aside on a plate.

Notes

If you don't have self-raising flour, you can make your own by combining 200g of all-purpose flour with 2 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt. For a gluten-free version, you can use gluten-free all-purpose flour with added baking powder.

If you don't have Greek yogurt, you can use regular plain yogurt or even sour cream. Keep in mind that the consistency may vary, so adjust the flour or yogurt quantity accordingly to achieve the right dough texture.

To store cooked naan, wrap it in aluminum foil or place it in an airtight container. It can be kept at room temperature for up to two days or frozen for up to a month. To reheat, simply warm it in a preheated oven at 150°C for a few minutes or microwave for 20-30 seconds until soft and warm.

Naan bread pairs well with a variety of dishes, including Indian curries, Middle Eastern dips, or Mediterranean salads. You can also stuff your naan with your favorite fillings, such as grilled vegetables, paneer, or seasoned meat, to create a delicious and satisfying meal.

Feel free to customize your naan by adding your favorite herbs or spices to the dough. Popular additions include chopped cilantro, minced garlic, nigella seeds, or even a pinch of cumin or turmeric.
