Cheese-stuffed garlic Naan bread
Report
Soft and pillowy garlic naan stuffed with cheese and chilli flakes is the melty side dish every curry needs. It's pretty fabulous on its own as a snack too!

Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the water, yeast and sugar. Mix to combine then allow to stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Sift in the flour, baking powder, garlic powder and salt and start mixing with the dough hook.
- Add the yogurt and allow to knead for 5 minutes. The dough needs to be soft and smooth. If it is too sticky, add a little flour and if it is too dry, add a splash of water/milk and mix through.
- Form the dough into a smooth ball then place in an oiled bowl. Cover with cling film and place in a warm spot to rise for 45-60 minutes (or until doubled in size).
- When the dough has risen, remove from the bowl and place on a floured surface.
- Cut into 10 equal pieces and press into a rough circle. Add a few spoonfuls of cheese and a pinch of chilli flakes. Bring all the corners up into the center and pinch together. Gently roll the Naan out until 1cm thick.
- Heat a large skillet or pan over high heat. Add the naan, cover and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. This version won't puff up quite as much as plain Naan because of the cheese filling.
- Mix together the butter and garlic and set aside.
- Remove from the heat and brush with melted butter and sprinkle over sesame seeds.
- Wrap in foil until ready to serve.
