Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 Naan (homemade naans or store-bought variety) you can also use whole wheat naans

Garlic and herb butter

  • 25 g salted butter
  • 1 Garlic clove (minced using a mincer) (small/medium clove - you can adjust as desired)
  • ¼ teaspoon Dried oregano (or more to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon Dried parsley (or more to taste)
  • Optional - handful Shredded/grated cheddar and mozzarella cheese for garlic cheese flatbread

Instructions

How to make Garlic Herb Butter Mixture

  • Melt butter in a pan or microwave (see notes).
  • In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic and dried herbs (oregano and parsley). Taste and adjust according to preferences if desired.

How to make Garlic Flatbread

  • Warm the flatbreads/naans in the grill or microwave for a few seconds, or until warm.
  • Spread garlic butter herb mixture across surface of naan/flatbread (using a brush or spoon). Optional – add cheese if desired.
  • Grill on high heat for a few minutes or until crispy and slightly golden. If you are adding cheese – grill until the cheese has melted and become slightly golden. Cut into quarters or slices, serve fresh and enjoy!

Notes

  1. Adjust garlic and herb mixture as desired: this recipe allows for extra herbs (or garlic) as desired! I recommend tasting the garlic and herb mixture before spreading onto naans/flatbreads.
  2. Use fresh naan: for the best results use freshly made naan – which is soft and thin.
  3. Meal prep tip: You can make naan in bulk and freeze for future meals - check out this easy step-by-step guide to freeze homemade naan!
