Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ¾ cups (218 ¾ g) self-raising flour
- 1 cup (200 g) Greek yogurt (use fat-free if desired)
- Pinch of salt
- Melted butter or olive oil for brushing (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, Greek yogurt, and a pinch of salt.
- Mix well until the ingredients form a dough that is soft and pliable. If the dough is sticky, sprinkle in more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until the texture is manageable.
- Shape the Dough:
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface.
- Shape it into a disc and divide it into 4 to 6 equal portions, depending on your preferred size.
- Roll each portion into an oval or round shape, about 5mm thick.
- Cook the Naan:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
- Place one piece of rolled-out dough into the skillet.
- First Side Cooking: Cook for about 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form and the underside is golden brown.
- Second Side Cooking: Flip the naan and cook for another 2–3 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula for even browning.
- Optional Brushing:
- While the naan is still warm in the skillet, brush it lightly with melted butter or olive oil for added flavor.
- Remove from the pan and serve immediately.
Notes
- Flour Substitution: If you don’t have self-raising flour, make your own by mixing 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and ¼ teaspoon of salt.
- Add Flavor: Enhance your naan by adding garlic powder, chopped herbs, or grated cheese to the dough.
- Make Ahead: Prepare the dough and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Let it come to room temperature before rolling and cooking.
- Reheat Tips: Warm leftover naan in a skillet or microwave to restore its softness.
