Whole wheat Naan

 I buy fresh whole wheat pizza dough, thinking of making a pizza. But it so happens that I either run out of some of the necessary ingredients, or am just not in the mood to have pizza. Since it is fresh dough, it would not last more than 3 or 4 days. Making naan is a good way to use up the dough, and it also feels like we put in a lot of effort into making them.



Whole wheat pizza dough
Finely chopped garlic - 2 cloves
Jalapenos - 2
Cilantro - few sprigs
Butter/Ghee - 1 tbsp (Optional)

Pre-heat the oven to 425F. Make softball sized portions of the dough and flatten into a triangle. Sprinkle with the crushed garlic, sliced jalapenos and cilantro leaves. Bake in the oven for about 12 minutes, or until the naan starts crisping at the edges. Remove and brush with butter/ghee. Serve hot with a side of your choice.
