How to Prepare Chili Naan Bread [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

In a bowl, add in the of water, sugar and dry yeast, mix until combined. Cover with a tea towel and leave for 10 minutes until frothy.
In a separate large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, chili flakes, and garlic granules.
Add the oil, yogurt, and yeast mixture to the flour mixture and combine until dough forms.
Flour your worktop and knead the dough for around 5 minutes.
Once soft, pop the dough into a large bowl, drizzle with a tablespoon of oil, and cover with some cling film/tea towel and allow to rise. It should double in size. This will take around 2 hours.
Line a baking tray with grease proof paper and preheat your oven to 455°F.
Dust your worktop with flour and knead the dough for a few minutes then divide the dough into 8 balls and place onto the lined baking tray.
Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into oval shapes, and place onto a pizza tray/stone (I used a pizza tray as this helps cook the naan from underneath).
Sprinkle water over the naan and pop into the oven for around 2-3 minutes until puffy and golden in color.
You could even broil the naan for a few seconds to crisp.
Serve whilst warm with a curry or enjoy cool with salad.
