Take 250 grams or 2 cups of refined wheat flour (maida) in a large tray and make a hole in the middle as shown in the image below. Now, add 2 tsp of sugar, 1 tsp of salt, a pinch or 1/8 tsp baking soda, and ¼ tsp of baking powder to it. Mix these ingredients nicely first and then add ½ cup of Dahi in it.

Mix the Dahi with the maida first and then add milk as required. Knead it very nicely for about 4 to 5 minutes to make a dough. Then add 1 tbsp of cooking oil to it and continue kneading to make a soft and slippery dough.

Make small dough balls; brush them with a little bit of cooking oil and dry maida. Keep them on the tray.

Then, cover them with a piece of cotton cloth and then with a plate. Let them rest for at least 4 to 5 hours. (Pro tip: If you are in a hurry, you can put them in an oven with the lights on or in sunlight for 2 hours).

In the meantime, take 10 cloves of garlic and 1 tbsp of coriander leaves and chop them very finely. (Pro tip: Chopping garlic finely is crucial as it will prevent the naan from cracking).

Now, arrange maida, water, and butter as required and put an iron tawa on your gas stove on a medium flame to preheat. Then, take one dough ball and dip it in the dry maida nicely to coat it from all sides. Flatten it with your fingers a bit and put some chopped garlic and coriander on it. Press them with your finger slightly.

Apply some dry maida on it and roll the naan as shown in the image below. Then, flip it and roll again to give a longitudinal shape. Brush this side with water.

Put it on the preheated tawa with this side facing down. Press it gently so that it sticks to the tawa. (Pro tip: Do not use non-stick tawa or an iron tawa left unused for a long time to make naan. It will not stick properly on the tawa. Make sure the tawa is medium hot or else the naan will not stick properly and fall off).

When you see bubbles on the surface, flip the tawa with the naan sticking on it and fry it directly on the flame. (Pro tip: Keep some distance between the flame and the naan to prevent it from burning on the outside and remaining uncooked from the inside).

Your naan is done after 30 seconds or so. Remove it from the tawa onto a plate. Brush it with butter on top. Repeat the process to make all the garlic naans.

Your quick and easy homemade garlic naan is now ready to enjoy. Arrange them in a basket and serve along with a veg or non-veg dish of your choice.
