Delicious, fluffy naan bread made with sourdough discard for added flavor and a perfect pairing for curries and dips.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 1/2 cup water (adjust as needed)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

  1. Mix the flour, salt, and baking powder together in a large bowl until well combined.
  2. Add the sourdough discard and olive oil to the flour mixture, mixing until a dough begins to form.
  3. Gradually add water to the dough, mixing until you achieve a soft but not sticky consistency.
  4. Flour your work surface and knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. Cover the kneaded dough with a cloth or plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  6. Divide the dough into small balls, about the size of a golf ball.
  7. Roll each ball into a flat circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
  8. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook each naan for about 2 minutes on each side until golden brown and puffed up.
  9. Serve warm, perhaps slathered with butter or accompanied by your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Try adding herbs or spices to the dough for extra flavor. If using whole wheat flour, adjust the water ratio slightly.
