Instructions
Add active dry yeast to warm water ( 110 degrees F/43 degrees C ) with sugar in a large bowl and let stand for 10 minutes to activate. After the yeast has been allowed to sit for 10 minutes, add milk, egg, and salt. Stir to combine.
Add flour and combine until a soft dough ball is formed, turn out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for 3 minutes. Cover with a damp towel and allow to rest for 7 minutes, then knead for an additional 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place dough into a well oiled bowl, turning to coat all sides. Cover with a damp towel and allow to rise for about an hour, or until doubled in size.
Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and turn back out onto your lightly floured work surface. Dust any sticky spots with flour as needed and pull off portions large enough to roll and form into 1 ½ inch dough balls. Roll all of the dough into portions and cover with a damp towel, allow to rise for 30 minutes or until doubled in size again.
After the dough has risen to double in size again, preheat your grill or skillet to high heat. Roll your first dough ball out to form a thin circle or oval about ¼ in thickness. Then transfer to preheated, lightly oiled grill, cast iron skillet or heavy bottom skillet.
Cook for 1-2 minutes ( bread should be slightly puffy and golden brown ). Turn bread and brush the melted butter onto the cooked side while cooking the second side for 30-60 seconds.
Remove from heat when the second side is also golden brown and repeat until all of the dough has been cooked.

Notes
Tips For Making Naan Bread:
In a pinch, I have skipped the second rise and still had favorable results.
If you know that you are in a hurry, use rapid yeast and combine all ingredients at once. Follow the directions as below, but roll out the portions and fry up after the first time the dough rises.
Make sure that you use a cooking oil with a high smoke point to cook on high heat. Extra Virgin Olive Oil has a lower smoke point ( 325 ºF / 162 ºC ). Use light ( or regular ) olive oil, coconut oil, or peanut oil.
