Chewy and Light Naan Bread
I wanted to eat naan that's chewy and moist like the naan at Indian restaurants.
By spreading the dough with oil, it becomes easier to flatten, and doesn't stick to your hands.
Stretch the dough out in your hands, rather than rolling it out
Make the dough bumpy rather than uniformly flat. Recipe by mirutann

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Put all the ■ ingredients in a bread machine, and leave the bread machine to do everything until the 1st rising (or hand-knead).
- 2
Divide the dough into 4, and rest for 10 minutes, making sure it doesn't dry out. (I alway invert a bowl over the dough to prevent it from drying out.)
- 3
Spread a little olive oil on the dough as you stretch and press it out.
- 4
When the dough has stretched out a bit, if you hold the middle of the dough between both hands and shake it around in circles, it will stretch out even more.
- 5
Press out any thick parts of the dough to finish. The naan should be more than 20 cm in diameter. If it has thick and thin parts, that's fine!
- 6
Cook the naan in a non-oiled frying pan. Cook on one side for 2 minutes with the lid on, turn over and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side with the lid on.
- 7
Turn it over one more time, and cook without the lid until crispy, for about 1 minute to finish. If the surface is not browned enough, cook it a little longer.
- 8
Eat dipped in loads of curry sauce. The best!
- 9
Topped with cheese.

Delicious Naan Bread Delicious Naan Bread
Naan made only with bread flour tends to be tough, and only with cake flour only is not chewy enough, so I wanted to make a personalized version. This is the absolutely best naan I've ever made! Eat with keema curry.If the dough sticks to your hands, dust with a little bread flour when forming the dough.When putting the dough in the frying pan, roll it out a bit while cooking.If you use a generous amount of olive oil, the naan will stay tender and delicious even after time!

Puffy and Delicious Naan Bread Puffy and Delicious Naan Bread
I've uploaded a recipe for keema curry to COOKPAD. I've always bought naan bread from a store to eat with keema curry, but recently, I wanted to try making my own naan. So, I adapted a pizza crust recipe I use often (I'll upload the recipe soon) to make this.This matches perfectly with, Keema Curry.If you make the curry while the naan bread dough is rising, it's efficient.If you wrap up the naan in plastic wrap and microwave it for 20 seconds to warm it up, it will be puffy and delicious. For 6 pieces. Recipe by takkytake -
Cheese Naan Bread Cheese Naan Bread
In our home, we occasionally make naan to eat with curry. After making them many times, I settled on this recipe since it has a flavor and texture that my family loves.In Step 6, instead of using a rolling pin, you can just stretch out the dough with your hands. In Step 7, adjust the cooking time depending on your stove and frying pan. I put a thin film of oil in the pan, but you can omit the oil if you prefer. Recipe by caramel-cookie -
Quick Chewy Basic Naan in a Bread Maker Quick Chewy Basic Naan in a Bread Maker
This is a recipe for naan that I serve with curry.If you don't have all purpose flour, you can use bread flour or 160 g of bread flour + 40 g of cake flour.If you cook them over high heat, they may burn on the out side while the inside remains uncooked. So, cook slowly over low-medium heat. Recipe by Natsumi -
Light and Puffy Homemade Naan Bread in a Pan Light and Puffy Homemade Naan Bread in a Pan
I wanted to make naan that not only went well with curry, but could be enjoyed for breakfast if any were left over. Since they can be cooked in a frying pan and will puff up nicely, they might be easier than regular rolls or loaves of bread!Since the dough continues to rise with residual heat after it's microwaved, put it in a warm place if possible. The dough will puff up when it's cooked.Since I added yogurt to the dough, it has a lightly tart, but easy-to-eat flavor. If you use milk only it will have a gentle creamy flavor. I recommend that too. For 4 pieces. Recipe by yaburie -
Herb Naan Bread Herb Naan Bread
I learned how to make my own naan about a year ago. I loved the fresh flavor and ease of making it at home. Also loving Greek food and tzatziki sauce I thought to combine the flavors. Oh so yummy! Serve this as a bread on the side, place in grilled meats and sauces and wrap or enjoy in so many ways. Building flavors starts here.

I wanted to make freshly cooked naan at home, so I cam up with this recipe.Please be sure to bake the naan on the at a high temperature. It will be nicely browned, as delicious as authentic Indian naan is. For the all purpose flour, use Lys d'Or or a flour that is specifically meant for French-style bread. If you can't get all purpose flour, use half each of cake and bread flours.I added baking powder to the recipe to improve it. If you don't have any though, you can just omit it.

Kulcha Naan/ Indian flat bread Kulcha Naan/ Indian flat bread
Naan is a leavened, oven-baked flatbread found in the cuisines mainly of India. It mostly consists of egg and milk products like yogurt. The egg brings crispiness to the naan while the yogurt helps in digestion of the gluten. It is generally prepared from wheat flour. However, spices are not used in naan. Spices are mostly used to make kulchas. Therefore, what I present here can better be called kulcha naan.#epicureanfeast #loveforfood #indianbread
