I’m sharing how to make naan without yeast, oven, or tandoor, so everyone can easily make it at home. I made these naan on a stovetop griddle (tawa), and they turned out very tasty and soft. Please try my recipe at least once—I’d be so happy! Friends, let’s get started with the recipe.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
First, place the flour in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and add all the ingredients except the milk. Mix well. Gradually add warm milk while mixing to form a dough. (Note: Naan dough is best made with milk for extra softness, but if you have less milk, you can use just 1/2 to 1 cup milk and add some warm water as needed. The naan will still turn out soft.)

Add the milk or water little by little while mixing. Don’t add all the milk at once, or the dough will get too sticky. If the dough feels sticky, don’t worry—just knead it well by punching it with your fists until you get a soft, smooth dough. To check, press the dough with your finger; it should spring back. Cover the dough and let it rest in a warm place for 1 hour.
- 3
After 1 hour, the dough will have risen. Punch it down to release any air, and knead it briefly. Now your naan dough is ready to use.
- 4
Break off a portion of dough and roll it out on a clean surface with a rolling pin into a round shape, slightly thicker than regular roti. Place the rolled naan onto a preheated griddle (tawa) over medium-high heat. When bubbles appear on top, flip the naan and cook the other side. Gently press the edges with a spatula so the naan puffs up. Transfer to a plate and brush with butter.
- 5
Repeat with the remaining dough and keep the naan in a covered container to stay soft. Your delicious, soft naan is ready to serve.
- 6
Serve the naan hot with shahi paneer, dal fry, or any flavorful curry. Enjoy with family and friends.

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!

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.

Air Fryer Naan / Flat Bread Air Fryer Naan / Flat Bread
I love Naan especially fresh and hot. It is surprising easy to do in your air fryer and because you are using an air fryer, you don't get any smoke like you do when you use a cast iron pan.This recipe is super flexible. You can use different sweeteners though they need to be sugar in nature for the yeast to work. As well, you can mix in things like dried fruit just before you let the dough prove; make sure your mix ins don't contain salt or too much moisture.If you want something that is whole wheat based, you can swap 2 cups of flour for it.If you feel like adding some seasoning to the rolled out dough before you air fry it, that works too. Just remember that seasoning in the air fryer goes a long ways Chris Jordan -

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 cookpad.japan -
