In a large bowl, add 1/2 cup warm water, 1 tablespoon yeast, and 1 tablespoon sugar; let sit for 5-10 minutes until the yeast blooms.

Add 1/2 cup plain yogurt and salt to the yeast mixture, then add 2 tablespoons olive oil and mix.

Gradually add all-purpose flour, mixing with a spatula and then using hands to knead until the dough is soft, about 5 minutes.

Add a little olive oil on top of the dough, cover with cling film and a kitchen towel, and place in a warm place to rise for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into 8 pieces.

Dust the working surface with flour, flatten the dough, and roll it out with a rolling pin.

Heat a cast iron skillet on medium heat.

Place the rolled dough in the hot skillet, wait for it to brown, then flip to cook the other side.

Once cooked, place the naan on a kitchen towel to keep warm and continue with the rest.

Spread butter on the naan and serve.
