Step Two: Allow The Dough To Rise

Divide the dough balls into 8 equal portions. Place the dough on a floured surface, using a rolling pin, to flatten the dough, and brush a little bit of olive oil on top. Place the shaped dough onto a plate, cover it with saran wrap or a kitchen towel, warm the plate, and allow the dough to rise for another 20 minutes.

Blackstone Naan Recipe Pro Tips

  • Flour: You can use gluten-free flour, or for a healthier option, you can use whole wheat flour.
  • Seasonings: Add more seasonings; if you want Garlic Naan Bread, add minced garlic and garlic powder.
  • Cinnamon and Sugar: For a great dessert recipe, especially for a camping trip, you can add some cinnamon and sugar mixture, which makes for a great dessert.
  • Preheat the griddle: Preheat your Blackstone flat-top griddle to medium-high heat. This helps create the necessary heat for achieving a crispy exterior while keeping the inside of the naan soft and fluffy.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: Use high-quality flour, preferably bread or all-purpose flour, to ensure the best texture and flavor. Fresh or active dry yeast will also improve the rise and texture.
  • Proper dough consistency: Pay attention to the consistency of the dough. It should be soft, pliable, and slightly sticky. Adjust the amount of water or flour to achieve the desired consistency. Knead the dough well to develop gluten, which helps create a light and airy texture.
  • Rest the dough: Allow the dough to rest and rise for at least 1-2 hours or until it doubles in size. This resting period helps relax the gluten and makes the dough easier to work with.
  • Divide the dough into equal portions: Divide the dough into small, equal-sized portions. This ensures consistent cooking and helps create uniform-sized naans.
  • Roll the naan evenly: Roll out each portion of dough into a round or oval shape, about 1/4-inch thick. Make sure to roll the naan evenly to promote even cooking and prevent any thick or thin spots.
  • Use ghee or oil: Brush the rolled-out naan with melted ghee or oil on one side. This helps create a golden-brown crust and adds flavor to the naan. You can also sprinkle some garlic or herbs for extra taste.
  • Cook on a hot griddle: Place the oiled side of the naan on the hot griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is golden brown.
  • Flip and cook the other side: Carefully flip the naan and cook for 1-2 minutes or until the other side is golden brown and cooked. Press lightly with a spatula if needed to ensure even cooking.
  • Keep warm and serve immediately: Once cooked, transfer the naan to a clean kitchen towel or a covered dish to keep them warm and soft. Serve the naan immediately to enjoy its crispy exterior and soft interior.

Is naan traditionally made with yogurt? Yes, yogurt is a traditional ingredient in naan recipes. It adds tenderness, moisture, and a subtle tangy flavor to the bread. However, some variations of naan can be made without yogurt for dietary reasons or personal preference.

Can I use ghee instead of butter for brushing the naan? Absolutely! Ghee is a wonderful choice for brushing naan, as it adds a rich, nutty flavor. It’s a common ingredient in traditional Indian naan recipes.

What are some common serving suggestions for naan? Naan is incredibly versatile and can be served with various dishes, including curries, kebabs, dips (like hummus or tzatziki), or as a wrap with grilled veggies and protein. It’s also delicious as a side bread for soups or stews.
