homemade flatbread or naan-style bread

Ah! That looks like homemade flatbread or naan-style bread—soft, buttery, and perfect for scooping up sauces or stuffing. Here’s a simple recipe to make these at home:


Soft Flatbread / Naan-Style Bread

Ingredients

  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 3–4 tbsp plain yogurt
  • 2–3 tbsp milk (adjust as needed)
  • 2–3 tbsp melted butter or ghee (for brushing)
  • Optional: garlic or herbs for flavor

Instructions

  1. Make the dough
    • In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
    • Add yogurt and a little milk.
    • Knead until smooth and elastic.
    • Cover and let it rest for 30–60 minutes.
  2. Shape the breads
    • Divide the dough into small balls.
    • Roll each ball into a flat circle, about ¼ inch thick.
  3. Cook
    • Heat a non-stick pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Place the rolled dough on the hot pan. Cook 1–2 minutes until bubbles appear, then flip.
    • Cook the other side until golden spots appear.
  4. Add butter
    • Brush hot flatbreads with melted butter or ghee as soon as they come off the pan.
  5. Serve
    • Stack and cover with a clean cloth to keep soft.
    • Serve warm with curries, soups, or as wraps.

Tip: For extra fluff, you can add ½ tsp yeast and let the dough rise 1 hour before rolling.

If you want, I can also give you a quick 5-minute version that comes out soft, buttery, and perfect for stacking exactly like in your photo. Do you want me to do that?
