1
In a small bowl, dissolve sugar in warm water. Sprinkle yeast over the top and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.


2
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yogurt and yeast mixture. Mix well and knead until the dough becomes soft and smooth.


3
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until it doubles in size.


4
Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal parts. Roll each portion into a ball.


5
Dust the working surface with flour and roll out each ball into an oval shape (approximately 6 inches long and 1/4 inch thick).


6
Heat a skillet or tawa over medium-high heat. Place the rolled naan on the hot skillet and cook for about 1 minute until bubbles start to form on the surface. Flip it over and cook for another minute.


7
Using tongs, remove the naan from the skillet and brush it with melted butter. Sprinkle minced garlic and chopped coriander leaves on top.


8
Serve hot and enjoy your homemade garlic naan with your favorite curry or dip.
