You'll definitely feel sorry for not having eaten this NAAN ever in your life. Try it, if u think it isn't good, go to an Indian Restaurant. I can bet my soul, they'll have it.

Ingredients
  • All purpose Flour - 2 cups.
  • Dry Yeast - 1 tsp
  • Sugar - 1 tsp
  • Salt - 1 tsp
  • Ghee/Melted Butter - 4tbsp
  • Yogurt -2 tbsp
  • Luke warm Water - 2/3 rd cup.
  • ----------------------------------------------------------
  • Toppings I used:-
  • Sesame seeds
  • Dried parsley

Directions
  1. Take luke warm water in a cup, dissolve yeast and sugar in it and keep it aside.
  2. Allow it to rise. It normally takes only about 5-10 minutes to rise well.
  3. Sift flour and salt into a bowl and add yeast- sugar mixture, yogurt and half of the ghee into it.
  4. Mix together to form a smooth dough. Again knead it on a flat surface to make it more smoother.
  5. Then it has to be kept in a greased, covered bowl (preferably in a warm place,may be inside the cooking range) and allow it to stand for almost 1 hr,by which the dough will be sized double.
  6. Knead the dough for 5 more minutes by punching it down.
  7. Divide into lemon sized balls. Flatten (extreme) each ball using hand,and add the toppings.
  8. Now heat a skillet (I didn’t have a grill pan, so I used a skillet) on the stove top.Grease it with oil and wipe it off with a cloth or kitchen tissue.
  9. Place the flattened dough on it, and cook it on medium heat.
  10. Within few minutes, it will puff up, then apply ghee/melted butter on 2 -3 spots and turn it over.
  11. Cook for few more minutes and remove. Immediately wrap it in a kitchen towel.
  12. Serve hot.
  13. Best side dishes: Paneer Butter Masala (http://www.grouprecipes.com/86379/paneer-butter-masala.html) or Butter Chicken Masala (http://www.grouprecipes.com/86467/butter-chicken-masala.html)

This sounds great!


This sounds perfect! I love Naan bread! I'll be trying this soon!


This was perfect! I made it to go with another recipe from this site called 'Chicken with Onions and Garlic' by Joe1155...a recipe with a lot of Middle Eastern flavor! This was great for soaking up the creamy gravy from that recipe! I made the Naan exactly as written. I had to add a little more flour than stated because it was too sticky. I didn't add the toppings. This was sooo light and fluffy and had great flavor, just like the Naan I've had in Indian restaurants! I will make this often! I added my photo:)


This looks fantastic and I will be doing the chicken with onions and garlic. Must make this to go with it! Thanks Lillian!


Thanks for this recipe. It sounds and loks wonderful!


This is on my list of things to try very soon! I'll think I'll do the Chicken with Onions and Garlic as well to go with it! Thanks Lillian for showing us this wonderful recipe and thanks Aravi for submitting it!


Okay so mine looks a little thick compared to the other pics but I could not get them any thinner...but regardless these are delicious! I different flavor of bread than I've ever tasted. You were right Aravi, I am sorry that I've never had naan in my life! I did end up serving it with some Indian eggplant and it was soooo good!
