Ingredients
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour1 tsp salt1/2 tsp dry active yeast1 1/2 cup milk, heated to 110F1 tsp sugarghee to taste (clarified butter)
Activate the yeast in the warm milk with the sugar added.
Combine the flour and salt. Once the yeast is active, combine the yeast mixture with the flour mixture. Mix in a stand mixer on medium speed for 5 minutes, or knead by hand until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Allow to rest for two hours, covered with a towel or plastic.
After the dough has rested turn it out onto a floured surface and divide into 12 equal pieces and round them into balls. Cover with a towel and allow to rest for 30 minutes.
While the dough rests heat your oven to 500 F and place a pizza stone, or cast iron skillet, on the bottom rack of the oven. Once fully rested roll out the dough until it is about 6″ to 7″ wide. It should be fairly thin.
Moisten your hands with water, gently pass the dough between your hands to moisten gently, then lay on the hot pizza stone. Close the oven and bake for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, or until puffed and beginning to get brown spots.
Remove from the oven, brush lightly with ghee (or melted butter) and cover with a cloth. You may need to press the naan to release the air inside.
