Homemade Griddle Naan Bread

water (warmed

active dry yeast ((.25 ounce))

sugar

all purpose flour (plus more for dusting work surface)

salt

plain Greek yogurt

olive oil

butter

garlic (minced)

Add warm water to a small bowl.  Sprinkle packet of yeast on top of the water.  Sprinkle ½ teaspoon of the granulated sugar on the yeast.  Stir water, yeast, and sugar together, and let stand on the counter for about 5-10 minutes, until mixture is foamy.

Add flour and salt to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook.  Mix together briefly.  Add yogurt, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, the remaining sugar, and the yeast mixture to the flour.  Mix on low speed until combined.  Then, increase  speed to medium and mix for about 8 minutes.

Turn the dough out of the bowl and knead together briefly to form a smooth ball.  Rub about 1 tablespoon of olive oil on the insides of a clean large bowl.  Place the dough ball in the oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and place on the counter at room temperature to rise for about 1 hour, until the dough has doubled in size.

After 1 hour, punch down the dough a bit and turn it out onto a floured surface.

Divide the dough into 8 equally-sized portions.  Roll out each portion of dough into an oval shape about 8 inches in length.

Heat griddle to about 450℉.  Add about 1 tablespoon of your favorite high heat cooking oil to the heated surface and spread it around with your spatula.  Place a small skillet or saucepan on the griddle as it is heating up.  Add 4 tablespoons of butter and the minced garlic to the skillet.  Stir occasionally as the butter is melting.  When butter is melted, remove the pan from the griddle so as not to burn the garlic.

Place one piece of the rolled naan dough on the hot griddle surface.  Cook on the first side for about 1-2 minutes, or until the bottom turns a light golden brown and the dough puffs up a bit.  Flip to the second side and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

When naan bread is done cooking, brush with the melted butter and garlic mixture.  Then, remove from the griddle.  Place the next piece of dough on the griddle, and repeat the cooking steps.

As each piece of naan bread is done cooking, stack on a plate and cover with a clean tea towel to keep warm.  Serve warm.
