- Milk¾ cups
- Greek yoghurt¾ cups
- Vegetable oil¼ cups
- Garlic4 cloves
- Flour4 cups
- Baking powder1 tsp
- Salt1 tsp
- Butter3 tbsp

Instructions
- Mix the warm water, sugar and yeast and let stand 5–10 minutes, until bubbling on top.
- Add the milk, yogurt, oil, minced garlic, flour, baking powder and salt.
- Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead with floured hands for about 3–5 minutes, until smooth.
- Lightly oil the same bowl, put the dough in, cover, and rest at room temperature for about 1 hour, until doubled.
- Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces, roll each into a ball, then roll into an oval about 6 inches long and 1/8 inch thick.
- Cook one naan on an oiled, hot skillet until bubbles form on top, about 1–2 minutes.
- Brush the top with a little oil, flip, and cook 1–2 minutes more, until large golden spots appear.
- Wrap the cooked naan in a clean towel and repeat with the rest.
- Mix the melted butter with the minced garlic, brush over each naan and top with the herb of your choice.
