These are traditionally cooked in a tandoor, but can be baked in a conventional oven too.  They're not quite as fluffy, but just as yummy.  There are lots of variations on naan recipes for the oven, this is just one of them.

Makes 8 Naan

Ingredients:

  • 125ml milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp caster sugar
  • 1 tbsp natural yogurt
  • 300g plain flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 25ml vegetable oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 4 tbsp chopped coriander
  • 50g butter, softened


Method:

Whisk the milk, egg, sugar and yogurt together.

Then mix the flour, salt and bicarbonate of soda in a seperate bowl and pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and combine to form a soft dough.  If the dough is a bit stiff, add a little water.

Knead for 3 minutes.

Drizzle on the oil and knead for another 2 minutes. Cover with clingfilm and leave to rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, beat the chopped garlic and coriander into the softened butter.

Preheat the oven to 220°C (gas mark 7).

Divide the dough into 8 balls.

Smear a blob of butter on each ball of dough then flatten the balls with your hand and shape into teardrop shapes, about 5mm thick.

When the rest of your meal is just less than 10 minutes from being ready, place naan on a non-stick baking tray and bake for 5-7 minutes.

Serve warm.
