Garlic Butter Wash

  • Take ½ cup melted butter and add 2 teaspoons of finely chopped garlic and chopped coriander leaves. Mix well and set aside.

For Naan

  • Heat a flat pan or iron griddle on medium flame.
  • Divide the leavened dough into small lemon size portions. Roll out a portion into a round disc that should be slightly thicker than normal roti. With help of a fork, prick the naan all over. Apply a thin layer of garlic butter wash over the naan and place the naan on the hot pan.
