This recipe provides a delightful twist on traditional naan bread by incorporating garlic and herbs for an enhanced flavor.
Combine the warm milk, yeast, and sugar in a mixing bowl and let it sit for 10 minutes until frothy.
Ensure the milk is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly.
In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and yogurt, then mix to form a dough.
Mix until the dough comes together, then knead for a smoother texture.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Use the heel of your hand to stretch and fold the dough for better elasticity.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Cover the bowl with a damp cloth to prevent the dough from drying out.
Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces and roll each into a round shape about 8 inches in diameter.
Use a rolling pin for even thickness.
Brush each naan with melted butter and sprinkle with minced garlic and chopped cilantro.
Adjust the amount of garlic and cilantro to your taste.
Cook each naan on a hot grill for 2 minutes on each side until puffed and lightly browned.
Ensure the grill is preheated for even cooking.
Serve the naan warm with your favorite dishes.
Keep the naan covered with a clean towel to retain warmth.
