Unless you get ghee, which I don't get (or make) here is a recipe given to me by the same person who told me about the oven technique. If you have ghee then replace the olive oil with it.
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
2 teaspoons sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons plain yogurt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Mix ingredients and let rise for at least an hour. Roll or flatten with hands and put on baking sheet. If using metal spray with olive or canola oil first. Add a little water to the naan to moisten before putting in oven on broil. Cook a few minutes and turn. Probably takes 5 minutes total to cook in my oven.
I cut this in half when I make it for us since otherwise we'll get left overs. I prefer naan hot and fresh so I never make left overs.
Feel free to add in herbs or spices that you like, but this is a basic plain naan. My boy eats this up like no tomorrow. I think it is his favorite bread I make.
