📋 Instructions

1. Make the Naan

1. Activate Yeast: In a bowl, combine lukewarm water, yeast, and sugar. Let bloom for 5–10 minutes until frothy.
2. Form Dough: Whisk in egg, yogurt, and oil. Stir in flour and salt until a soft dough forms. Knead 3–5 minutes until smooth, cover, and let rise for 1 hour until doubled.
