Garlic Naan Bread

Garlic Naan Bread made with Floridian Hefeweizen, a German Style Wheat from Funky Buddha.

After our trip to Royal India in San Diego, I decided I wanted to try making Indian food at home. It’s a cuisine I know very little about but always enjoy when I have it. I’ve actually made Naan Bread a few times before. It’s a super simple bread that’s similar to making pizza dough, but I’m not worried about making my dough perfectly round {Truthfully, I’m not usually worried about that when making pizza dough either}. This bread would made a perfect base for a flatbread or a great scoop for a flavorful Indian dish like Chicken Tikka Masala {Coming soon!}.

I made this dish with a hefeweizen from a local South Florida brewery called Funky Buddha in Fort Lauderdale. Funky Buddha makes some really interesting beers. No Crust, Blueberry Cobbler, Rice Crispy Treat Ale, and German Chocolate Cake are a few of the beers I’ve tried, and they all literally taste like the name describes. I have no idea how they can produce so much flavor in each beer, but they do. Floridian is a more traditional beer in comparison to the others I listed.

Hefeweizens are a German style wheat that are typically unfiltered. Not filtering the beer gives it a cloudy appearance when poured into a glass. They’re also great beginner beers. They’re light in flavor and have a banana smell and taste that comes from the yeast. Don’t worry, that banana flavor does not come through in the bread.

I’ll be back with more recaps from our San Diego trip and a great recipe to serve with this recipe.

Adapted from Half Baked Harvest- Homemade Naan Bread
Ingredients
  • ¼ Cup Hot Water (Hot tap water will work)
  • 1 Tablespoon Sugar
  • ¾ teaspoon Dry Yeast
  • 4 Cup All-Purpose Flour
  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • 1½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 Cup Plain Greek Yogurt
  • ¾ Cup Beer
  • Oil for brushing
  • Large Garlic Clovse- Cut in half
Instructions
  1. In a stand up mixer, combined Hot Water and Sugar and stir until the Sugar is dissolved. Add Yeast, stir, and set aside for 10 minutes. .
  2. In a large bowl, combined the AP Flour, Garlic Powder, Salt, Baking Powder and Baking Soda together with a whisk to fully combine.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the Yogurt and Beer and add to the Yeast mixture.
  4. On a slow setting, with a hook attachment, slowly add the Flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Increase the speed to medium and mix until the mixture starts to come together like a ball.
  5. Turn off the mixer and place the dough in a lightly greased bowl {Lightly rub the sides of a large bowl with oil}. Cover and places in a warm area for an hour to rise {I covered mine in plastic wrap and placed on the balcony because our house is freezing}.
  6. Place the dough on a cleaned, floured, surface and knead several times.
  7. Remove desired amount of dough from the ball and use a rolling pen to roll to desired size and shape {I made small 6 inch oral shaped pieces}
  8. Brush dough with oil and place on a cooking sheet. Repeat with additional dough.
  9. Preheat a skillet, with a lid, to medium high heat.
  10. Place the rolled dough in the pan and cover with the lid. Cook 1-2 minutes or until the top is puffed up and the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook an additional 1-2 minutes.
  11. When you remove the dough from the pan, rub with the piece of garlic on both sides.
  12. Serve warm.
  13. Side Note: You can make the bread ahead of time. When ready to eat, wrap stack of bread in foil and cook in the oven on 350 degrees for 5 minutes or until warm.
