👩‍🍳 How to make it:

  1. Prepare the dough:
    Mix flour, yeast, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a bowl.

Add yogurt and oil and knead into a smooth dough (if it’s too dry, add a little warm water).

Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour (or until doubled in size).

  1. Prepare the filling:
    Mix the grated cheese with garlic and, if desired, some fresh herbs.
  2. Shape the naan and set aside. Filling:
    Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces.

Roll each ball into a small circle.

Place a tablespoon of the cheese mixture in the center.

Fold it into a pouch and press firmly together.

Turn it over (seam side down) and carefully roll it out into a flat log about 0.5 cm thick.

  1. Bake:
    Heat a frying pan (without oil!) over medium heat.

Bake each naan bread for about 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown spots appear.

For an extra flavor boost, brush with melted butter with garlic and cilantro, if desired. 🤤

🧄 Serving suggestion:
Delicious with curries, soup, hummus, or tzatziki

Or simply as is, straight from the pan with a dollop of yogurt dip

You can even freeze them and reheat them in a pan or oven

🔄 Variation tips:
Spicy version: Add chili flakes or jalapeño to the cheese

Sweet and savory: Combine mozzarella with a drizzle of honey and walnuts

Vegan? Use plant-based yogurt and vegan cheese—it works just as well!

Soft bread + melted cheese = pure magic. ✨ Want to make a stuffed version with spinach or onions? Let me know, and I’ll post a recipe for you there, too 💚
