Naan

March 16, 2025

1 1/2 cups lukewarm water
3/4 tbsp yeast
3 and 1/4 cups of all purpose flour
A generous pinch of salt
EVOO

Dissolve the yeast in the water. Add in salt and the flour, incorporate well until a sticky dough is formed. No kneading necessary. Set aside covered for 20-30 mins.

Tear or cut off with a serrated knife peach-sized amounts and transfer to a floured surface. Shape into oblong naans with help of rolling pin if necessary. Make sure there are no holes in the naan once you are done rolling it out.

Heat a skillet on high heat, brush on some ghee or oil, lower the heat to medium and lay the naan on carefully. Flip over in about 2 mins when the first side starts browning.

Cook closed for 30 seconds to a minute now, depending on the thickness of your naan. Serve HOT.
