Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup warm water (180ml)
- 1 tsp honey (7g)
- 2.25 tsp active dry yeast (7g)
- 3 cups all-purpose flour (375g)
- 0.5 cup whole wheat flour (65g)
- 0.5 cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt (120g)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp fine sea salt (6g)
- 0.5 tsp baking powder (2g)
- 3 tbsp melted ghee (42g)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 tsp flaky sea salt
Instructions:
- In a small bowl, whisk the warm water (105°F–110°F), honey, and active dry yeast. Let the mixture sit for 5–10 minutes until it becomes frothy and activated.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sea salt, and baking powder.
- Whisk the Greek yogurt and egg into the yeast mixture until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
- Stir until a shaggy dough forms, then knead by hand on a floured surface for 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and slightly tacky.
- Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into an oval shape approximately 1/4 inch thick.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Place one dough oval into the dry skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes until large bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is charred. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- Mix the melted ghee with minced garlic. Brush the hot naan with the garlic ghee and garnish with fresh cilantro and flaky sea salt before serving.
