Two Ingredient Naan (makes 4 naans)



This is surprisingly easy to make and results in soft, fluffy naans that are heavenly with curries, dahls or by themselves!

  • 250g self raising flour
  • 250g Greek yoghurt
  • Pinch of salt

Butter

To serve: Garlic butter, sea salt flakes

1. Mix all of the ingredients together until a dough forms.

2. Sprinkle flour over your kitchen surface and knead the dough for 5 minutes until smooth.

3. Put the dough in a bowl and cover with a clean tea towel. Leave to rest for 2-3 hours.

4. Split the dough into 4 pieces and roll each into a ball.

5. Sprinkle your kitchen surface with flour and roll out each ball.

6. Put a pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add a knob of butter. When the butter is melted and beginning to brown, add the naan to the pan.

7. Pan fry the naan for 2-3 minutes. When the naan is a dark golden colour underneath and has bubbles of air, flip it. Lower the heat slightly and cook the naan for another minute. Repeat with the rest.

8. Serve the naan with garlic butter (recipe on my garlic bread reel) and sea salt flakes. Enjoy!

  2. Peel potatoes and cut large ones into thick wedges - about 3cm / 1.2" thick - and medium ones into 3 (see photo in post).
  3. Place in a roasting pan with all the other ingredients. Toss well.
  4. Roast for 20 minutes. Turn potatoes, roast for a further 25 to 30 minutes until the liquid is mostly absorbed by potatoes/evaporated and you're left with mainly oil in the pan.
  5. To crisp the potatoes (optional): Transfer potatoes to a separate tray. Tilt the original roasting pan and scoop off as much of the oil as you can (some juices is ok), then drizzle over the potatoes.
  6. Transfer potatoes to oven and roast for 20 - 25 minutes, turning once or twice, until potatoes are golden and a bit crispy.
  7. Return the pan with the garlic juices to the oven for the last 5 - 10 minutes or so to reduce down and make the #garlic golden.
  8. Transfer #potatoes to serving platter. Drizzle over the reduced garlic pan juices (or toss potatoes in the pan). Serve, garnished with lemon wedges and oregano if desired.
