Method

  1. Make the dough.

    Tip the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl and stir.

    Add the yoghurt and mix with a spoon until it clumps, then bring it together with your hands into a rough ball.

    Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth.

    If it sticks, add a little flour.

    If it cracks, wet your hands and work them in.

    Rest the dough for 5 minutes.

  2. Shape the naan.

    Cut into four pieces.

    Roll each one out to a teardrop about 5mm thick, dusting with flour so it does not stick.

  3. Make the garlic butter.

    Melt the butter and stir the grated garlic through it.

    Set aside.

  4. Cooking.

    Heat a heavy frying pan over a high heat until a drop of water skips across it.

    No oil.

    Lay one naan in the dry pan.

    Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until big bubbles rise and the underside is charred in patches.

    Flip and cook the other side for 1 minute.

  5. Finish and keep warm.

    Brush the hot naan with the garlic butter and scatter a little flaky salt.

    Repeat for the rest, keeping them warm under a clean tea towel.
