Instructions

  1. 1 Place yogurt in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave (or heat on the stovetop) until lukewarm.
  2. 2 Dissolve yeast in ½ cup warm water. Stir in yogurt, 2 cups flour, sugar, oil, and salt; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining 2 cups flour to make dough easy to handle.
  3. 3 Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth. Place in a greased bowl; let rise until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  4. 4 Shape dough into 8 loaves; lightly brush each loaf with cold water. Cut 3 diagonal slashes across loaf tops with a sharp knife. Let rise until doubled in volume, about 25 minutes.
  5. 5 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Brush loaves with cold water.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until loaves sound hollow when tapped, 30 to 35 minutes, brushing with water twice during baking time.

Instructions

  1. 1 Combine water, sugar, and yeast in a bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and forms a creamy foam, about 15 minutes.
  2. 2 Heat butter in a pan over medium heat until melted and sizzling. Quickly mix in garlic and remove from the heat.
  3. 3 Add bread flour, yogurt, salt, and 1 tablespoon garlic butter to yeast mixture; stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms. Knead by hand until dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl, adding more water or flour as needed. Turn dough out onto the counter and continue kneading until it forms a smooth ball, 3 to 4 minutes.
  4. 4 Place dough into a large bowl and drizzle a few spoons garlic butter over top. Cover and let rise until doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
  5. 5 Punch dough down and turn out onto the counter. Shape into a rough rectangle and cut into 6 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and lightly dust with flour. Cover with plastic wrap and proof until slightly puffy, 15 to 20 minutes.
  6. 6 Preheat a cast iron skillet over medium heat until very hot, 5 to 10 minutes.
  7. 7 Meanwhile, roll each piece proofed dough into a 1/8-inch-thick oval. Sprinkle some cilantro on top and press lightly to adhere.
  8. 8 Working in batches, cook naan in the hot skillet until large bubbles form, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip, press gently, and continue to cook until bubbles on the bottom are charred, 2 to 3 minutes more.
  9. 9 Brush naan with more garlic butter before serving.
