Homemade Garlic Naan
Print Recipe

This recipe brings back memories of Sunday dinners at our neighbor’s house, where warm, pillowy naan came fresh from the skillet—brushed with golden garlic ghee and sprinkled with fresh herbs. It was comforting, delicious, and shared with laughter. Now you can recreate that same magic at home with this easy, flavor-packed recipe.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Naan:

1½ tsp active dry yeast

1 tsp granulated sugar

½ cup warm water (about 110°F)

½ cup warm whole milk (about 110°F)

½ cup plain whole milk yogurt

3½ cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp kosher salt

Olive oil or grapeseed oil (for brushing)

Chopped cilantro (for garnish)

For the Garlic Sauce:

1 tbsp minced garlic

3 tbsp melted ghee, butter, or olive oil

Kosher salt, to taste

Instructions

In a bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let sit 10 minutes until foamy.

Stir in warm milk, yogurt, flour, and salt. Mix until a soft dough forms.

Knead on a floured surface for 5–7 minutes. Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise 1 hour.

Divide dough into 8 balls. Roll each into an oval shape.

Heat a skillet over medium-high. Cook each naan 1–2 minutes per side until puffed and golden.

Mix garlic sauce ingredients. Brush hot naan with sauce and sprinkle with cilantro.

Notes

Soft, garlicky, and utterly satisfying—this naan is the perfect sidekick for any meal or a treat on its own.
