Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • OR
  • 2 cups all-purpose or bread flour PLUS
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup thick greek yogurt
  • 2 Tbsp milk
  • 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese grated
  • Oil for cooking I use avocado or coconut
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl combine the flour, yogurt and milk.
  • Mix with a spatula until it starts to come together as a dough.
  • Move to a lightly floured surface and need for 1-2 minutes. Shape into a ball and set aside for a couple of minutes while you grate the cheese and mince the garlic.
  • Divide the dough into 4 pieces.
  • Using a rolling pin, roll each piece into a round-oval shape, lightly dusting with flour if needed.
  • Divide the grated cheese equally between each piece of dough.
  • Fold up the edges of the dough and seal in the centre so it forms sort of a ball again.
  • Roll the ball out to about 6 inches. Repeat for all the dough pieces.
  • Heat a cast iron pan over medium-high heat.
  • When it’s hot, add in a drizzle of oil (about a Tbsp) and add in the naan breads, one at a time. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown. Set each aside until finished.
  • Turn the heat way down (I even remove the pan from the heat entirely because cast iron gets so hot).
  • Add in the butter and then the garlic. Once it’s melted and the garlic has cooked for a minute or two, dip each naan in the pan, turning over once to coat both sides with butter.
  • Alternatively, you can brush each naan with the garlic butter.
