Notes
This recipe uses instant yeast. If using active dry yeast, dissolve it in the warm water with the sugar and let foam for 5 to 10 minutes before mixing.
For best results, weigh flour. Scooping can add too much and make dough dry. See How to Measure Flour.
Store leftover naan in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day or refrigerate for up to 3 days.
