This is a North Indian recipe that has been passed through my great-great grandmothers side of the family. Not the Americanized version. Some people from different parts of the middle east and India make it slightly different. One of my favs is potato stuffed naan. It just depends what you're into eating. I did my best to translate the recipe since my Punjabi isn't all that great.

Punjabi Style Naan

1 tbsp. sugar
3 tbsp. butter
1/2 cup warm milk
2 tbsp. yogurt
2 tbsp. milk
1 tbsp. poppy seeds
1/4 tsp. saffron strands
2 cups plain white refined flour (Maida)
2 tsp. dry yeast
optional: two crushed garlic cloves or garlic paste

1. Warm up the milk .
2. Add yeast and sugar in the milk.
3. Leave it alone for about half any hour until it froths a bit.
4. Mix some saffron into remaining 1 tbsp. milk. set it aside.
5. In a large bowl combine salt and flour. Add yogurt and yeast (knead).
6. Using a wet cloth cover the dough, Keep it covered OVERNIGHT.
7. Make dough into small balls.
8. Place the ball on a flat surface and pat it to make a big tear shaped (doesn't have to be perfect). The rolling pin does nothing the naan looses its natural texture while baking so don't bother.
9. Place it into a greased baking tray and spread it more to make a big pear shape. The center should be thinner than the outer edges.
10. Preheat oven 350 F. bake for 4-6 mins
11. Add garlic paste and sprinkle as much as poppy seeds as desired before going into oven. Enjoy!
