Garlic naan bread recipe

From: ?...
1 T. active dry yeast
4 T. sugar
1 cup warm water
1 beaten egg
3 t. warmed milk
2 t. salt
3 to 3 1/4 cup flour
2 garlic cloves minced
1/4 cup melted butter
parsley flakes or cilantro


Place first three ingredients in your bosh bowl, mix just to dissolve and proof the yeast for about 10-15 min.  Add all remaning ingredients except the butter and parsley.  Mix the dough for about 2 min. on speed 2 (this should be the consistency of a soft dough) Allow the dough to raise until doubled, roll this into small balls, let raise again.  At this point you will roll out the balls of dough, if you are making pizza on the grill, place some flour on the back side of a cookie sheet put two of your rolled out "minni" pizza's on the sheet and fix it with your pizza toppings and sauce.  Grill for just a few minutes and serve (this is delish, we have this all the time and every person who has tried it loves them).  


If your making naan bread to go along with your curry dish or coconut thai curry dish etc. you'll place them on a grill that has been oiled (before heating of course) and once it is cooked on both sides (just a couple min.) brush melted butter over the top and sprinkle with parsley or cilantro.  Both are great, and so easy to do, enjoy!:)
