I've been making naan a lot the last month or so too. The recipe I am using is something like:
About 90 minutes to rise, then divide in 3, shape, and cook in a cast iron skillet. Melted butter, sea salt, and sesame seeds on top after it is done.
I saw one person say egg in naan in not authentic, another say it is fine. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ My knowledge of South Asian cooking is extremely limited, but we've been really enjoying these.
There are many vegetarian south Asians and I’ve tried both with yogurt and egg :) I like them both! Have you tried making garlic cheese naan?
After the first rise, flatten your rested divided dough ball into a rough circle, brush with garlic butter, sprinkle shredded cheese, seal all the seams and roll into a ball. Let it proof a second time (about 15-25 minutes only) and roll it flat before cooking. They’re amazing!
thanks for sharing your recipe :)
