Add yeast, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add lukewarm water and mix all ingredients together. Rest it aside for 5 mins.

In a separate bowl, add white flour, yogurt and oil. Add the yeast mix as well and mix all ingredients together.

Knead into a dough, grease the dough top with some oil and rest it for 1 hour under wet towel. Greasing will keep the dough moist.

After resting, knead dough well and divide the dough into equal portions.

Roll out the naan, make sure it is not too thin and or too thick.

Heat a pan on medium heat. Apply little water all over the top side of the naan. We want the naan to stick to the pan while cooking so it does not fall off.

Once you've applied water to one side, place the watered side on the pan (it should stick right away).

Once you see some bubbles forming on top of the naan, flip the pan on top of the stove.

You'll see some burnt marks on naan, remove it from stove flame.

Once the naan is cooked well, remove from pan, apply some butter and serve hot!
