Transfer the dough onto a working space lightly dusted with flour.Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth. Shape into a ball and divide in 4 equal parts. Smooth out those 4 parts into smaller balls.
- Shape into flatbread. Take one small dough ball and roll it out into a oval or round shape. We are going to roll them out one by one, while we are cooking them. Put a large non-stick pan over medium flame and let it heat.
- Cook the naans. Place the first naan into the pan and let it cook for about 2 minutes on each side. While cooking, roll out the second ball of dough.Finish cooking them all and place them on a large serving platter one on top of the other to keep them warm.
- Lightly melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the pressed garlic clove and the chopped parsley. Brush the naans immediately and serve while still warm.
