Fluffy and warm sourdough naan bread, the perfect accompaniment to curries and dips.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sourdough starter (discard)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
  • Optional: garlic, herbs, or spices for flavor

Instructions

  1. Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and baking powder until well combined.
  2. Create the Dough Mixture: Add the sourdough starter, water, and yogurt to the bowl. Mix it together until a rough dough forms.
  3. Knead to Perfection: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  4. Let the Dough Rest: Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and allow it to rest for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
  5. Portion the Dough: After resting, gently punch down the dough to release air, then divide it into small balls (about the size of a golf ball).
  6. Roll Out the Naans: On a floured surface, take each ball and roll it out into a flat circle about 1/4 inch thick.
  7. Heat the Skillet: Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat, and drizzle in olive oil, swirling it around to coat the surface.
  8. Cook Until Golden: Place each naan in the hot skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side until it’s golden brown and puffed up delightfully.
  9. Add Flavorful Finishing Touches: If desired, brush your hot naan with melted garlic butter or sprinkle it with fresh herbs before serving.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
