Garlic Naan (No‑Yeast, Stovetop)

Recipe by Adam Ragusea

Restaurant‑style garlic naan made on a stovetop cast‑iron skillet without a tandoor. The dough uses yogurt, baking powder, and a touch of baking soda for lift, then is topped with grated garlic and cilantro, cooked on high heat, and finished with a brush of melted butter.
