  • Add sugar and dry yeast into the indent. Add melted butter and salt on the side outside of the indent so they are separate from sugar and dry yeast.
  • Add warm water into the indent with the sugar and dry yeast.
  • Mix by folding everything until you can lift up the dough.
  • Tap the dough in the bowl for 5 minutes. It's ready if the dough barely sticks in the bowl.
  • Roll the dough and put in a medium size clear bag or cover the bowl with cling wrap.
  • Keep the dough at room temperature for 30 minutes.

To make naan bread

  • Cut the dough into 4 and roll each piece.
  • Add flour for dusting on a cutting board and spread each piece so it is 7-8 inches (17-20cm) long and 0.2 inches (0.7cm) thick.
  • Use a medium or large pan and cook two pieces at a time. Cook on high heat for 30 seconds. Then turn to medium heat and cook for 3 minutes.
  • Flip and cook for another 3 minutes.
  • Add some butter while it's warm!
