Learning experience:
This definitely works better with a mixer as the dough is very sticky. Using a mixer is a breeze as I don't have to deal with sticky hands.
The naan turned out really good. Soft and tasty. Using the pan is fast and easy too.

Oil the countertop and hands. Remove dough and divide into 5 (approx 100g).
Shape into ball, oil the surface of the dough, cover and let it proof until 30 mins.
Oil rolling pin and dust flour over the dough.
Roll the dough into the length of your pan.
Heat up a cast iron pan to very smoking hot and brush a layer of oil.
Place the dough into the pan and cover slightly.
Pan fry until dough turn puffy and roast mark appeared (about 2 – 2.5mins on each side).
Flip and brush a layer of oil onto the dough.
Once cooked, brush a layer of garlic paste and just do a quick cook on both sides to let the garlic paste enhance the flavor further.
Transfer to a serving plate, brush another layer of garlic paste on the opp side.
Serve warm.
