Garlic Naan

What is your first choice of Indian Bread that you order in a restaurant? For me it is either Garlic naan or Onion Kulcha. That was until I laid my hands on Garlic Naan at home... It was so simple and so flavorful, now I rarely appreciate the ones in the restaurant.. Garlic Naan is a famous Indian bread that tastes best when served hot. It is accompanied with a variety of dishes like paneer Butter Masala, Channa Masala etc.

Method
Heat water and milk mixture in microwave for 30 seconds or until the temperature reaches 110 – 120 degrees F.  Mix yeast in and dissolve and leave it for couple of minutes (it will become frothy)
Mix the dry ingredients to flour and add oil and add yogurt and now add the yeast mixture. Mix it to a dough. Add oil to hand if required.
Keep the dough for 1 to 2 hours and it should become double in volume
Heat the oven to 500 degrees F and leave for 20 minutes with the Pizza stone or the baking tray in it.
Roll the naan to the desired shape and press the garlic on it and use the baking stone or pizza stone to keep the naan inside after rolling it.
Keep it inside the oven and it will take around 2 to 3 minutes
Brush the naan with clear butter and now the Naan is ready to be served!
