Naan bread

Today I present to you a recipe for Naans – traditional Indian tandoor breads, which are served with dishes such as curry or butter chicken. Unfortunately, I do not have such an oven, so I fry these breads in a dry frying pan, but you can also bake them in the regullar oven.
This pan-fried naan recipe is a great choice for Indian food lovers. They are easy to prepare and only need a few ingredients. These delicious and flexible yeast breads taste great solo, but I also like to spread some melted butter with fried garlic on them and sprinkle with parsley. They are perfect not only for Indian dishes but also for hummus or goulash.
