Ingredient Substitutions
Self-rising flour can be replaced with a mixture of all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt for those who don’t have self-rising flour on hand. Use 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 3/4 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. This substitution maintains the leavening properties necessary for the naan’s texture. Greek yogurt can be substituted with plain regular yogurt or sour cream for a similar tangy flavor and creamy texture. If using regular yogurt, strain it through a cheesecloth for 30 minutes to remove excess liquid. For a dairy-free option, coconut yogurt can be used, though it may alter the flavor slightly. Melted butter can be replaced with ghee for a nuttier flavor or olive oil for a heart-healthy alternative. These substitutions maintain the naan’s moisture and help achieve a golden crust.

Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups self-rising flour
- 1 cup greek yogurt (fat-free is optional)
- A pinch of salt
- Melted butter or olive oil for brushing (if preferred)
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
In a mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, Greek yogurt, and a pinch of salt.
Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated.
The dough should have a soft yet non-sticky texture.
If it feels sticky, gradually add a small amount of extra flour to achieve the right consistency.
Step 2: Shape and Divide the Dough
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and shape it into a flat disc.
Use a knife or dough cutter to divide the dough into 4 to 6 pieces, depending on the desired size of your naan.
Roll each piece out to approximately 5mm thickness.
Step 3: Cook the Naan
Place a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the skillet is hot, add one piece of the rolled-out dough.
Allow the naan to cook on the first side for about 3 minutes, until bubbles form and it begins to brown.
Step 4: Flip and Finish Cooking
Flip the naan over to the other side and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing it to brown and finish cooking.
While the naan is still in the pan, lightly brush it with melted butter or olive oil to enhance the flavor.
Step 5: Serve the Naan
Remove the naan from the pan and serve immediately.
Pair it with your favorite curry, chili, or pasta to enjoy a delightful meal.
