Savor the comfort of homemade naan bread, perfect for pairing with curry, chili, or pasta. Quick to prepare and cook, this naan recipe is a go-to side dish for any meal.
In a mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, Greek yogurt, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well incorporated.
The dough should be soft but not sticky. If it feels sticky, add a small amount of extra flour until the consistency is right.
Shape the Dough:
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and shape it into a disc.
Cut the dough into 4 to 6 pieces, depending on how large you want your naan to be. Roll each piece out to about a 5mm thickness.
Cook the Naan:
Place a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a piece of rolled-out dough.
First Side Cooking: Cook the naan on the first side for about 3 minutes, until it starts to bubble and brown.
Second Side Cooking: Flip the naan and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Optional Brushing:
While the naan is still in the pan, lightly brush it with melted butter or olive oil for added flavor.
Remove from the pan and serve immediately with your choice of curry, chili, or pasta.
Notes
Homemade Self-Raising Flour: If you don't have self-raising flour, you can make your own by adding 2 teaspoons of baking powder to 1 cup (150g) of all-purpose flour. Whisk the ingredients together to combine.
Optional Add-ins: Feel free to sprinkle some garlic, shredded cheese, or herbs onto the dough before cooking for a customized flavor.
