Browned Butter on Garlic Naan Bread
It's hard to imagine naan bread being any better. I
guarantee you'll be blown away by this homemade garlic naan bread recipe. It's
soft and chewy like regular naan bread, but with a caramelized garlic flavor
enhancement.
For a delicious, nutty finish, the naan is coated with
garlic brown butter immediately before serving.
The making of garlic naan
bread is simple, but it does require some rising time, so a little patience is
essential.
If you don't like the three-step rising process, you may
make the dough ahead of time and let it rise slowly in the refrigerator—easy
and hands-off! Make-ahead instructions can be found in the recipe card's notes
section.
Garlic Naan Preparation
One of the most important components of making naan is using
fresh yeast; if the yeast has expired, your dough will not rise. It's better to
be safe than sorry, so go to the store and get a new package (you can find it
in the baking aisle next to the flour).
Finally, let's talk about the garlic browned butter. Melted
butter on naan is amazing, but browned butter? It is unrivalled. Crispy,
delectable, and quite excellent. It is necessary.
