Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
• 1 1/2 cups Bread flour
• 1 package fast acting yeast
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 Butter or ghee
• 3/4 ml Yogurt
• 3/4 ml Hand-hot water

For the filling:

2 tbsp sultanas or raisins
2 tbsp desiccated coconut
2 tbsp flaked almonds or pistachios

Directions:
Directions:
1) Mix the flour, yeast, and salt in a large bowl.
2)Stir in the yogurt and enough water to mix to a soft dough.
3)Knead on a lightly floured surface for 5 mins until smooth and elastic.
4)Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a clean tea towel.
5)Leave in a warm place for about 1 ½- 2 ½ hrs or until the dough has doubled in size.
6)While the dough is rising, place the filling ingredients in a food processor or blender and process to a coarse paste.
7)Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F/Gas Mark 7. Place a heavy-duty baking sheet in the oven to heat up.
8)Divide the dough into 6 pieces and roll each out to a circle.
9)Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each circle then pull the edges together to enclose the filling and pinch tightly to seal.
10)Shape into a ball then roll each ball out to a thin oval shape. Take care when rolling out the stuffed dough balls as you don’t want the filling bursting out. Use a gentle rolling action and flour the surface well to prevent the dough from sticking.
11)Quickly place the naans on the hot baking sheet and bake for 7-8 mins until puffy and with brown spots in places.
12)Serve immediately brushed with melted butter or ghee.
