Ingredients

🍞 500g Self-Rising Flour
🥛 520g FAGE Total 0% Milkfat Plain Greek Yogurt
🧄 30g 2 Tbsps Garlic Salt
🧀 560g 5 Cups Fat-Free Shredded Mozzarella
🧈 60g 4 Tbsps Melted Light Butter
🧄 40g 4 Tbsps Minced Garlic
🌿 10g Fresh Parsley

Instructions

1- Prepare the Dough:

• In a glass mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour, Greek yogurt, and garlic salt.
• Mix by hand until a cohesive dough forms.

2- Knead:

• Transfer the dough to a clean surface.
• Knead for a few minutes until it appears smooth and pliable.

3- Divide:

• Cut the dough into 10 equal pieces.
• Shape each piece into a smooth ball.

4- Roll Out:

• Lightly flour a surface.
• Use a wooden rolling pin to roll out one dough ball until it's super thin.

5- Fill:

• Place a portion of the mozzarella cheese in the center of the rolled-out dough.
• Pinch the edges together over the cheese to seal it completely, forming a filled dough ball.

6- Form Naan:

• Roll out the cheese-filled dough ball again until it takes a thin, round shape.

7- Cook:

• Heat a non-stick pan on a CUSIMAX induction cooktop.
• Cook the naan without oil, flipping once, until it puffs up and develops golden brown spots.

8- Finish:

• Once cooked, brush with melted light butter.
• Sprinkle with minced garlic and garnish with fresh parsley.

9- Serve or Store:

• Serve immediately as a complement to your meal.
• To store, wrap in aluminum foil and freeze for up to 3 months.
