Naan is made using the dough cycle, then it's shaped into ovals and fried in a buttery skillet. I brush it with butter when it's done cooking, and sprinkle it with fresh herbs like parsley or chives. This is a delicious recipe that you'll want to add to your homemade bread rotation!
Add the ingredients to the bread pan in this order: warm water, olive oil, egg, yogurt, salt, sugar and bread flour. Make a well in the center of the flour and add the yeast, being careful that it doesn't interact with the salt (this will cause the yeast to become inactive).
Set the machine to the dough cycle. Check the dough to make sure a soft ball is forming. If it's too crumbly and dry, add more water. If it's too wet, add more flour in small amounts until a tacky dough ball forms.
When the cycle is finished, remove from the bread pan and divide into 4 pieces. Shape into balls and place on a baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap or a cheesecloth and let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes, until the dough is doubled in size.
Punch down each dough ball and shape into a flattened oval or circle until about 8-10 inches in diameter.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of butter. When melted, add the uncooked naan one at a time (or as many will fit) and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side. You'll know it's time to flip when bubbles begin to pop up and turn golden brown on the bottom.
Remove the naan from the pan and place on a wire cooling rack. Brush the top side with melted butter and sprinkle with fresh herbs. Serve warm.
