"Love a good bit of naan bread with a curry to mop up the sauce and thought I would give it a go making it myself, this recipe is from one of our national supermarkets and is slated as easy to make. Have not included rising time in the preparation time."

Step 1

Combine the flour, yeast (or baking powder), salt and sugar in a large bowl.

Step 2

Whisk the water, yoghurt and egg together in a small jug and then add to the flour mixture and stir until mixture just comes together.

Step 3

Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes or until mixture is smooth.

Step 4

Place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm, draught free place for 30 minutes to rise.

Step 5

Use your fist to punch down the dough and add half the ghee to the dough and knead for a further 5 minutes or until ghee is well incorporated into the dough.

Step 6

Preheat oven to 180C and place an oven tray or pizza stone into the oven to preheat (IF USING PIZZA STONE PUT IN BEFORE YOU TURN THE OVEN ON).

Step 7

Meanwhile, melt the remaining ghee in a small saucepan over low heat and add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds or until aromatic and then remove from the heat.
