Ghee is clarified butter - Indian stores will have it...
Serves: 8

Ingredients
1/2 oz fresh yeast (or 1 1/2 tsp dried)
4 Tbsps warm milk
2 tsps sugar
1 lb flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp milk
1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp yogurt
1 egg, beaten
4 Tbsps ghee (or melted butter or vegetable oil)
Method
- Combine the yeast, warm milk and sugar in a small bowl until the yeast begins to froth, about 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Combine the milk, yogurt, egg and ghee. Stir in the yeast mixture. Stir the liquids into the dry ingredients. Mix until a ball forms.
- Pour the ball onto a floured tabletop and knead for about 5 minutes. Return to a clean, lightly oiled bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Place in a warm area until the dough is doubled in volume, about 1 - 1 1/2 hours.
- Pre-heat oven to 375F Punch down dough and divide into 8 portions. Roll into balls and cover with damp cloth for 10 minutes. Roll or stretch each ball into a circle roughly 8" in circumference. Brush each with some reserved ghee or melted butter and place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 10 minutes, turning the naan over and bake an additional 6 minutes, brushing again with ghee/melted butter.
- Remove and keep wrapped in a clean tea towel. Serve immediately.
