Grilled Onion Naan

Ingredients:

• 1 envelope of dry yeast (or 2 1/2 tsp)

• 2 tbsp of sugar

• 4 1/2 cups of AP flour

• 2 tsp of kosher salt

• 1 tsp of baking powder

• 3 tbsp of milk

• 2 tbsp of plain Greek yogurt

• 1 egg; beaten

• 2 tbsp of vegetable oil

• 1 small yellow or red onion; minced

• 3 tbsp of Ghee; melted

• Flakey salt

In a small bowl, mix together your yeast, sugar and 1/4 cup of warm water. Stir and let sit for about 10 minutes or until frothy.

In the bowl of a standing mixer with a dough hook attached (or just a large bowl), mix together your flour, salt, and baking powder.

Once the yeast and sugar mixture is frothy, add that to your dry ingredients, along with the milk, Greek yogurt, beaten egg, vegetable oil and another 3/4 cup of warm water.

Mix until the dough comes together and is soft but not stick.

Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and cover with plastic wrap and then a kitchen towel. Place the bowl in a warm spot in your kitchen. let the dough rise for about 1 hour.

After an hour, split the dough into 8 sections of about the same size, roll them into rough balls and then flatten them into an oval shape with a rolling pin.

Sprinkle some minced onions on one side of the oval, fold the dough in half and re-roll it out. You want the minced onion to be almost pocketed inside of the dough. Don’t worry too much about the shape, but make sure there are no parts of the dough that are thicker than the rest so it cooks evenly.

Place the formed naan on some parchment paper, cover with a kitchen towel and let rise again for at least 30 minutes, but until you are ready to cook them.

I made these on a grill pan, cooking for about 4 ish minutes on each side. You can also place a baking sheet upside down in your oven and preheat your oven to 425F and do it that way!

Once your naan is cooked, brush with some melted ghee and sprinkle with flakey salt.
