This Naan was fantastic!! Soft and fluffy, with a great texture, and went perfect with the Easy Indian Butter Chicken recipe off this site. I didn't have access to a grill or oven, so I fried each piece of Naan one at a time in a frying pan and they bubbled up perfectly. I rolled out each piece to about a quarter of an inch thick, perhaps those who found the bread to be too tough rolled it out too thinly. This is my favorite naan recipe, and I have tried making it with various substitutions (milk instead of yogurt, olive oil for ghee, garlic and garam masala instead of onion seed, no seasonings, etc.) and it always comes out delicious. I find I have the best results when I use one cup of bread flour with one cup of all purpose flour, the added gluten gives the Naan a really nice texture perfect for sponging up curries and sauces.

Love!!!! I used 1/4 cup veg oil instead of Ghee, no ghee in my town, and did not use kalongi. I mixed it on dough setting in bread machine then baked it as recipe says. It was the best naan ever and I swear I will never buy store bought again!

I've made this twice now and I love it. My husband requests it when I make him curry. The second time I made it we had guests, so I cooked them about 2 hours early and they were still very good.

This was wonderful! I finally planned ahead for an Indian meal and made Naan instead of Chapati (also good!). I used my bread machine's dough cycle to mix, knead, and raise this. I used chapati flour for all of the flour. I added a bit of minced garlic and garam masala to the dough, along with a bit of extra-virgin olive oil to make it a bit moister. It looked a bit dry when mixing. After it raised, I made the dough balls, flattened them with a tortilla press, spread ghee and cumin seed (didn't have the recipe's seed) and let them sit for one hour, then fried. I greased the griddle with liquid ghee. My hubby and son couldn't get enough of this! I made a recipe scaled for 9, and made 8, 6-inch rounds.

These came out AMAZING!!! I added some garham marsala ( sp) and garlic powder to the doe. Then, after forming them, I added about 1/2 tsp of tumeric, garlic powder, and Ajwan seeds to the butter topping. I also made 4 instead of six, b/c I like them puffy. They were incredible!!!! I cooked these on a pizza stone in the oven at 450 degrees for 3-4 minutes on each side.

This naan is just as good as any I've had from a restaurant or from a grocery store. Made a few changes for convenience and based on the experiences of others. Started it in bread machine on dough setting, used oil rather than ghee, and I made finger marks in the dough before frying them in a hot pan on top of the stove. Was so easy and so delicious! Will never buy naan again. I don't need to! Thanks for sharing this recipe.

*Just a little naan tip if you want it to bubble up nicely. Tap your fingers into the rounded-out dough right before baking. Tap it hard, make finger prints, to a little finger dance on them. I've been making naan for years, this recipe is very nice. If you like to experiment, cook up some mashed potatos (preferably with garlic) and add a cup, more or less, to the mixure. Super moist! That's my lazy version of Aloo Naan.

So easy to make and tastes great! I used vegetable oil instead of ghee and garlic powder instead of kalonji (I went to an Indian grocery store and they didn't have onion seed). I baked the Naan in the oven at 400degrees. I placed the baking sheet in the oven while it was preheating so the baking sheet was nice and hot. I then cooked the Naan for 10min flipping them half way through (on the middle rack). Turned out great! Everyone loved them and keep asking for more.

Great. I used oil instead of ghee and just some garlic powder. I think it should say on the grill? Anyhow, I cooked them on my griddle at 450 degrees and it took about 4 minutes per side but they came out quite nice. They don't reheat well.

I made these using my Cuisinart mixer, so easy and they are delicious. The recipe makes 6 hand sized breads. I didn't have onion seeds but it didn't matter. My husband didn't believe these were homemade. They freeze really well too.

Great recipe. My husband has wanted me to find a recipe for naan and I tried many of them. This one is the keeper and thank you for sharing. Just one note: the recipe says cook one at a time. Listen to the recipe so they cook evenly.

I followed the recipe directions to a T but found the dough too loose. I would use 1/3 cup water instead of 2/3 cup and reduce the salt to 1/2 tea spoon. The oven temp. should be 500 degrees or higher and keep the tray high up, as if broiling. I think this recipe has some promise if a few changes are made.
