   u may need to add more milk until dough forms a ball that seperates from the edge of the bowl..

   LIGHTLY.... oil the edges and bottom of the bowl ..( I took the dough out and used the same bowl... I put a very small amount of oil and oiled bottom and sides)

7. Step 7

   put the dough back in dough and roll it around to coat dough with oil.

8. Step 8

   cover the bowl with plastic wrap... I use a large rubber band around the edge of bowl to seal it.... out dough in a dark warm place... I just set it inside my microwave ...

9. Step 9

   let dough rest for 30 minutes - 3 hours....

10. Step 10

    dough should double... knead for about 5-10 minutes. dough should be smooth.

11. Step 11

    seperate dough into 4 equal pieces .. I lightly flour your surface and rolling pin.... my GM just used an old glass bottle for a rolling pin. I have a wooden rolling pin.. rub whatever your using with flour....

12. Step 12

    I press the dough by hand and then roll out each piece to the size of a salad plate.....

13. Step 13

    I allow them to sit while I prepare grill. they can also be baked...

14. Step 14

    **** GRIDDLE..... put a very small amount of oil on the griddle... then take a piece of paper towel to spread oil lightly.... heat should be Med/ high.. when griddle is hot begin cooking naan.... each piece will puff up and resemble the surface of the moon... flip over and cook just about 1-2 minutes on the second side. remove from the griddle and liberally apply melted butter..(I use a paint brush I bought at Walmart )
