Step by step recipe
Stage 1 - 2 min.
Stage 2
Stage 3 - 10 min.
Start the food processor on slow speed and knead for 10 minutes until the dough is evenly mixed.
Stage 4 - 2 hours
Transfer the dough to a large bowl, cover with a sheet of plastic and leave to rise in a warm place for about 2 hours, until the dough has doubled in volume.
Stage 5 - 10 min.
After this, divide the dough into pieces of about 100g and roll into balls (the dough will be rather sticky at this stage, so use plenty of flour).
Dust the tops of the balls with flour, cover with a sheet of plastic and leave to rest for one hour.

Stage 6 - 1 hour

Stage 7 - 5 min.
Stage 8 - 10 min.
Prepare all the naans this way.
Stage 9 - 5 min.
If you like, you can brush the top of the naans just after they come out of the oven with melted butter or, better still, with ghee, the Indian clarified butter with its distinctive taste.
Stage 10
Possible variations: for naan with seeds, mix them into the dough at the end of kneading: a handful of sesame seeds, linseeds, poppy seeds, etc.
Stage 11
Or you can even make cheese naans by folding the dough over onto a layer of soft cheese or cheese spread.
Remarks
Nothing beats freshly made naans, so make them at the last minute if you possibly can.
Keeping
1 or 2 days wrapped in a cloth. They also freeze well.
