Ingredients:
2 ¼ teaspoon yeast
1 ½ cup water
3 teaspoon sugar
2 1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup plain yogurt / curd
4 3/4 cup all purpose flour
¾ teaspoon baking powder
6 tablespoon vegetable oil
Method:
- Take a bowl and add in the active dry yeast and lukewarm water. Add in the sugar and the salt. Add in the plain curd / yogurt. Whisk well to combine. Add in the flour and the baking powder. Mix well.
- This is a very very sticky dough. Do not add any extra flour. Keep mixing for 2-3 minutes by hand. If the dough is unmanageable, then add 1/2 cup flour and knead. Add the extra flour only if it is very very necessary.
- Cover the dough with a plastic wrap. Let it sit in a warm place for an hour. The dough would have more than doubled.
- Preheat over to 430 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Sprinkle little flour on the dough. Gently deflate the dough. Dust a plate or a working surface with flour. Remove the dough. Sprinkle flour generously on top of the dough so it does not stick. Knead for a few seconds.
- Cut the dough into 12 equal pieces.
- Take each piece of dough and make a small round. Place the dough on a parchment paper lined sheet and sprinkle some oil on top. Gently press the dough to spread to a shape of a naan. Roughly about 6 inches.
- Apply any sauce of your choice. Do not apply a lot of sauce as the pizza will become saucy.
- Add in the toppings and cheese.
- Bake the pizza for 15-20 minutes until the top of the cheese is golden brown.
