Perfectly soft and chewy, this homemade Naan Bread recipe comes together quickly and easily.

 1 sachet of Saf-Instant yeast
 270 g Flour
 1 cup Warm water
 ¼ cup White sugar
 3 tbsp Milk
 1 Beaten egg
 2 tsp Salt
 ½ cup Bread flour
 2 tsp Minced garlic (optional)
 ¼ cup Melted butter
1

Dissolve yeast in warm water and wait 10 minutes until it’s frothy. Stir in sugar, milk, egg, salt, and flour to make a soft dough.

2

Knead for 6 to 8 minutes on a floured surface until the mix becomes smooth. Place dough in a well oiled bowl and let it rise 1 hour until the dough has doubled in volume.

3

After an hour, punch down dough and knead with garlic and pinch off small handfuls of dough (more or less the size of a tennis ball)

4

Place your dough ball on a tray and allow to rise until the size has doubled about 30 minutes.

5

Roll one ball of dough out into a thin circle and place dough on grill until puffy and lightly browned.

6

Brush uncooked side with butter, and cook until browned, 2 to 4 minutes. Continue the process until all the naans have been prepared.
