Ingredients:

  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 tbsp fresh yeast
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 2 tbsp plain yogurt
  • 2 tsp salt , to taste
  • 1 tsp nigella seeds, crushed (optional)
  • 1 tbsp oil

Directions:

  1. Sieve the flour.
  2. Add water, yogurt, egg yeast, nigella and salt to make a soft dough.
  3. If dough sticks too much then use little bit of oil on hand and then punch into dough.
  4. Top with oil.
  5. Let rest covered 15-20 minutes.
  6. Divide dough into 8-10 portion and form balls with little flour.
  7. Let rest 20 minutes.
  8. Now to make naan, set oven at broil.
  9. Roll oval shape out of dough: flat your balls and toss to make them bigger.
  10. Put 2 naans on the baking tray and place it into stove (make better naan on stove top) and flip it after about 2 min (you have to check!). On the other side they need now about 30-40 seconds (check!).
  11. Repeat with the other naans.
  12. Keep them covered with a towel and serve warm.
  13. Note: If you like, after taking it out apply some butter on them. And they are ready to eat.
