HOMEMADE GARLIC NAAN

Sharing with you one more, special dear to my family, recipe of Indian flat bread, world famous as "Garlic Naan". Not just me, this naan is favorite of everyone who have ever tried Indian food. Isn't it?
Naan is an Indian flatbread that is traditionally baked in a tandoor oven.

The live fire of a tandoor oven exposes the dough to super high temperatures, allowing it cook quickly. Luckily, you can achieve similar results by cooking the naan dough in a hot cast iron skillet. 
Soft and Buttery Homemade Garlic Naan - just like the one from your favorite Indian restaurant! Enjoy it with your favorite curry!

Ingredients

• Butter - To Brush
• Coriander Chopped - 3 tbsp
• Flour - 2 Cups + More for dusting
• Garlic - ⅓ Cup [half chopped and half grated]
• Oil - 1 tbsp
• Salt - to taste
• Sugar - 1 Tbsp
• Warm Water - As required
• Yeast - ½ tbsp

Instructions

1. First, Start by taking some warm water, about ¾ cup and add in the sugar and yeast to it. Mix well and keep to proof for 10 mins.
2. Then, In a large mixing bowl/kitchen platform take 2 cups of flour, add salt to taste. Along with the proofed yeast mixture.
3. Then, Get your hands in and form it into a dough, Add more water if required. Now add a tablespoon of oil and knead this for about 5 minutes.
4. And then, Place the dough in a greased bowl and let it proof for a hour or until doubled.
5. Sprinkle some flour, and punch the dough. Knead it for a minute. Then form small portions out of it, about a lemon sized.
6. Mix the garlic and coriander in a bowl for the topping.
7. Heat up an iron tawa in high flame. Take a dumpling of the dough, and roll this using a rolling pin in an oblong shape. Sprinkle flour if necessary.
8. Take about 1½ tsp to 2 tsp of garlic topping and spread on top. Using the rolling pin, roll once to press the garlic in the shaped naan. Pat once with floured hands, optional.
9. Flip the naan on its back, and smear water in here. Just make sure to wet it, neither too much water nor less. Take the naan and stick to the hot pan on the water side.
10. Let the naan cook for a couple seconds, then flip the tawa and cook it in the flame. The naan would be stuck to the tawa, and you'd be lifting and flipping the tawa to cook the naan in direct flame for even cooking and brown spots.
11. Once cooked, using a spatula or ladle or some sort, take the naan out, and smear some butter.. Enjoy HOT!
