Pan naan casero

Ingredientes

• 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
• 3/4 cup lukewarm water (100 degrees F.)
• 1 Tablespoon Greek Wildflower Honey
• 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil plus some for brushing before cooking
• 3 Tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
• 2 teaspoons of chopped fresh cilantro or cilantro paste.
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Preparación

1. 1

   In a bowl, add the lukewarm water, honey, and the yeast and let sit for about 10 minutes until it gets foamy.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and sea salt.

3. 3

   In the bowl with the yeast, add the yogurt, chopped cilantro, and extra virgin olive oil. Mix to combine.

4. 4

   Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, and combine using a fork. When the dough comes together, use your hands to finish mixing. It will look wet like it needs more flour but it’s ok. As soon as it comes together, stop kneading.

5. 5

   Cover the dough with a damp cloth; let sit in a warm place for about 3 hours until it doubles in size.

6. 6

   Transfer dough to a floured work surface; divide into 8 balls.

7. 7

   Working with 1 ball at a time, using a rolling pin, roll dough into 9″x 5″ ovals about 1/4″ thick. If dough sticks to your work surface, add a sprinkle of flour.

8. 8

   Heat a 10″ nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat.

9. 9

   Working with 1 piece of dough at a time, brush a little olive oil on one side and cook for 45 seconds. Brush a little olive oil on the top side, flip, cover pan with a lid and cook the second side for 45 seconds. Make sure that you get some nice browned spots.
