This post is gonna be straight and to the point. I whipped up some Naan a few months ago – ate most of them right away (some of it as I was making it – it was so good) and froze the rest. I had a recipe set aside for a dish I wanted to make with the Naan, but it so far has not happened. So instead, we’ll just have this fabulously chewy Indian bread on it’s own.
Do you have any idea how ridiculously easy it is to make Naan? Well, you would if you’ve made it before. Make your dough, let it rise, separate it into mini loaves for the second rise, stretch out the dough and fry it up. Easy! The hardest part is realizing you have, oh, I don’t know, 13 more loaves to fry up before you are done.
But it is totally worth it.
Oh, you don’t have a tandoor? Yeah, me neither. I used a cast iron skillet and it worked out just great.
Here’s the recipe. Whatever you do, don’t get the bright idea to add garlic powder (yeah, don’t ask). That was a bad, bad idea on my part.
Enjoy!

You’ve convinced me to make this soon! Looks great!
I’ve been eying a few naan recipes as of late, exactly for the reason this post is convincing: IT LOOKS AWESOME (and seems easy).
Garlic powder, LOL. I’m assuming this = burning.
Nah, garlic powder + sugar = two great tastes that don’t taste great together. I think if I added the “optional” garlic in the recipe, I’d decrease the amount of sugar a little. π
OMG, I love naan! I don’t trust myself at Indian buffets because I feel the urge to eat like 4 servings of it.
I have never had Naan before but this looks great. I might have to give it a try. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, this looks great–who would have thought that it’s “simple” to make! Thanks!
Homemade naan is so ridiculously good! Though the first time that I made it I tried baking it and it did not turn out to well.
I love the idea of making your own naan – especially if it is so easy. Plus it looks great π
Wow! I had never considered making naan myself. Very exciting!!
This reminds me of my homemade flour tortillas. I love naan, and having a bunch in the freezer would make me really happy. I need to try this soon.
