Ingredients

  • 3 cups plain whole-milk yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • ½ pound Garlic-Herb Naan
  • 10 ounces smoked trout
  • 4 whole radishes
  • ¼ cup coarsely chopped dill
  • 2 tablespoons sliced chives
  • 1 teaspoon flaky sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1.

    Line a fine-mesh sieve with cheesecloth and set over a medium bowl. Place yogurt in sieve, cover with plastic wrap, and let drain in refrigerator at least 1 day and up to 2 days if you want it slightly thicker. Discard excess liquid. (Or skip this step entirely and use 1 1/2 cups store-bought labneh instead.)

  2. 2.

    Prepare a grill for medium-high, indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off); lightly oil grate. Working with 1 piece of dough at a time, gently stretch to about a 10x8" oval. Grill over direct heat, turning and rotating as needed, until bread is stiff and both sides are lightly charred, about 3 minutes total. Move to indirect heat to keep warm while you grill remaining piece of dough.
