Time 8m

Yield 1 8 inch Naan

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 ounces refrigerated bread dough (see Recicpe #387518)
1 tablespoon ghee (clarified butter) or 1 tablespoon cooking oil (neutral flavored)
1 tablespoon butter (if frying in oil)

Steps:

  • Use the refrigerated pre-mixed dough for No-Knead Flatbreads Recipe #387518 or Recipe #309834.
  • Remove the selected dough from the refrigerator. Lighly dust the surface with flour and cut off a 1/4 pound (peach size) piece.
  • With lightly floured hands quickly shape dough into a ball by streching the surface of the dough around to the bottom on all four sides, rotating the ball a quarter turn as you go.
  • Using your hands and a rolling pin, andd minimal flour, roll to a uniform thickness of 1/8 inch throughout (about 8 inch diameter).
  • Heat a heavy cast-iron skillet over high heat on the stovetop. It's ready when water droplets flicked into the pan skitter across the surface and quickly evaporate.
  • Add the ghee or oil to the hot pan.
  • Drop the rolled dough round into the skillet, decrease the heat to medium, and cover the skillet to trap the steam and heat.
  • Using a spatula check for doness at about 3 minutes, or sooner if deemed necessary. Watch cafrefully and adjust heat as needed.
  • Flip the naan when the underside is richly browned.
  • Continue cooking another 2 to 6 minutes, or until it feels firm and the second side has browned.
  • Remove from the pan and brush with butter if the dough was cooked in oil.
  • Serve warm.

This recipe is a keeper! The naan is soft, fluffy, and has a slight chewiness to it. It's the perfect bread to serve with curries, stews, or even just plain with some butter.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a hit with my family and friends. It's so easy to make and the naan always turns out delicious.

Meh.

This recipe was a total flop! The dough was too sticky to work with and the naan ended up being tough and chewy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

The taste was good but the texture was a little too dense for my liking. I might try adding a little more yogurt or milk next time to see if that helps.

These were really tasty and easy to make! Followed the recipe exactly and they came out with a great texture and a little crispy on the edges. They are quite puffy so if you're looking for a flatbread, you might want to roll them out thinner or press

The naan was delicious and super easy to make! My only complaint is that the recipe made 6 large pieces of naan, which was too much for my family of 4. I'll definitely be halving the recipe next time.

I was skeptical at first because I've never made naan before, but this recipe was so simple to follow and the naan turned out amazing! My family loved it.

This recipe is soo easy and the naan came out perfectly! I've tried other no-knead naan recipes before but this one is by far the best.
