Avocado naan bread served

Avocado Naan

Although originally from Central America, the avocado is now one of the most popular ingredients in modern cuisine worldwide. This naan is a special fusion recipe that combines the tradition of Indian bread with the fresh, creamy flavor of avocado. As the naan bakes in the hot skillet, the avocado cream gently warms inside, filling the inner layer of the dough with its silky texture – the kitchen fills with fresh, warm aromas. Tip: use fully ripe avocados, as they are creamy, spreadable, and their slightly sweet taste perfectly complements the naan. Lemon juice not only preserves the color but also adds a refreshing acidity. This naan is perfect for a quick breakfast, brunch, or even as a light dinner, especially when combined with salad or spicy dips.

    Preparation Steps

    1

    Halve the ripe avocado, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and mash it with a fork in a bowl. Add a tablespoon of lemon juice to preserve its color.

    2

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. This forms the base for the naan.

    3

    Add the yogurt, lukewarm water, and olive oil to the dry ingredients, and mix until a smooth dough forms.

    4

    Knead the dough for about 10 minutes, until it becomes elastic and smooth. Tip: If it sticks, sprinkle with a little flour, but don't over-dry it.

    5

    Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

    6

    Divide the risen dough into 6 equal portions. Shape them into balls, then roll them out into oval shapes.

    7

    Spoon a portion of the avocado puree onto one half of the rolled-out naan, fold the other half over, and gently press down. Slightly stretch it again.

    8

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the naans for 1-2 minutes per side, until brownish spots appear.

    9

    Once cooked, brush with melted butter while still hot – this enhances the flavor of the soft dough and makes the surface shiny.

    10

    Serve warm – it makes an excellent breakfast, brunch, or light dinner with salad or yogurt dip.
