Method

1. Put all of the dough ingredients into a large mixing bowl and combine with a wooden spoon. Once everything starts to come together, go in with your hands and knead for 5 minutes or so until you’ve got a stretchy, smooth dough. You can add extra dustings of flour to the bowl/work surface to stop it sticking. Cover with a tea towel and set aside to prove for 2.5 hours.

2. When you’re ready to cook, preheat your oven to 120°C. Prepare the garlic & herb butter by melting the butter in the microwave (a short 15 second blast should do it) and add the fresh herbs, salt & pepper.

3. Dust your work surface with a bit more flour. Separate the dough into two, setting one aside while you roll out the other. The dough should be lovely and stretchy.

4. Put a frying pan on a medium-high heat and melt a generous lump of butter. Once melted, add your first naan to the pan (love a rhyme). Cook for 3 minutes on one side before flipping over and doing the same on the other. It should be golden and gorgeous. Meanwhile, roll out the second naan.

5. Once the first naan is cooked, remove from the pan and add to a tray. Brush generously with your herb butter and pop it in the oven to keep warm while you make the second one.

6. If the pan is looking dry, add a bit more butter and repeat the process with the second naan. You may find that it needs slightly less cooking time as the pan is warmer so just keep an eye on it.

7. Drizzle with enough of the garlic butter to choke a horse and get stuck right in!
