"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Ingredients:  
1/2 cup warm water
2 tsp instant yeast
1 tsp sugar

Directions:
Combine warm water, yeast, and sugar in a large bowl; let sit for five minutes or till bubbly. Add olive oil, yogurt, egg, salt and 2 cups of flour. Stir till smooth.

Add enough flour to make a soft dough. Knead a few times on a floured counter until smooth.
Place dough in a greased bowl. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled.
Preheat a skillet to medium heat.

Cut dough into eight pieces. On a floured surface, roll out each piece into a 6" circle.

Add a little oil or non-stick spray to the skillet. Cook each circle for 2-3 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown on the bottom. Flip over and cook for another 2-3 minutes.


Brush the top (the bubbly side) of each naan with melted butter. I added garlic to my butter, but that is optional.
