Ingredients

  • 70g yoghurt
    130ml warm water
    10g yeast
    pinch sugar
    220g flour
    2 pinches salt
    3 cloves garlic,finely chopped
    1 tbsp ghee
    salt flakes

Method

  1. 1. In a large bowl,mix the yoghurt,water,yeast and sugar then leave for a few minutes for the yeast to activate.

    2. Mix in the flour and salt,put the mixture in an electric mixer with a dough hook and mix on low for 14 minutes;it should look shiny and stick to the dough hook when it is ready. The dough can also be kneaded by hand on a floured surface for about 20 minutes.

    3. Remove the hook,or if you kneaded the dough by hand,put it into a bowl. Cover the bowl with a wet cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.

    4. Flour a benchtop well and cut the dough into eight equal pieces – it will be quite moist. Using a rolling pin,roll each one up and down to about 5-7 millimetres thick to make a long oval shape,then put them on baking paper for easy handling.

    5. Turn the barbecue on high. Mix the garlic and ghee into a thick paste. Peel the naan off the baking paper and barbecue for 1-2 minutes on each side,then brush with the garlic ghee.

    6. Season with flaked salt and eat immediately.

    Suggestion: Serve withthe Blue Ducks' mixed grain dhal.
