Forget Sourdough, Here Are 5 Indian Bread Recipes To Try At Home

This homemade flatbread recipe is really simple to make – all you want to combine the ingredients and make a dough ball. Allow it to rise until it doubles in size. Divide the ball into 6 equal portions. Flatten each piece of dough and form an oblong shape. Cook them on a cast iron skillet and you have really soft homemade naan.

5. DIVIDE THE DOUGH & SECOND RISE FOR 15 MINUTES – The second rise is the key step for soft naans. I have tried skipping this step and made this Indian flatbread too. However, I loved the texture and fluff that came from the simple naan with the second rise.

6.COOK THE NAAN BREAD ON STOVE TOP – Apply oil on the top of each dough and the rolling pin. Flatten each piece of dough, and form a rough, oblong shape. Do not roll them like Chapathis. Roll them length-wise and then by side ways.

Yes, my version of Naan bread is Vegan. I have made them with dairy free greek yogurt and it comes out amazing.  This recipe is so versatile – simply use the ingredients you have got at hand.

Pita bread is generally healthier than naan because it’s often made with whole wheat flour, providing more fiber and nutrients. Naan tends to have more calories and fat, especially because it is brushed with ghee or butter.

Adding yogurt to bread dough makes it softer and tastier due to the moisture and slight tangy flavor it adds. It also helps the bread rise better and can extend its shelf life.

You can freeze the homemade naan bread for up to 3 months. Make all the naan bread and allow them to cool down completely. Now pack them well in freezer-safe plastic bags like Ziploc and label them. Store in the freezer for 3 months.

For reheating frozen naan, defrost the naan and then warm them in the microwave and serve immediately. Keep in mind Naans will dry out every minute they sit out after reheating. This is a freezer-friendly Naan bread, so you can enjoy them later too!

Easy Gluten Free Naan Bread (no Yeast)

Naan bread in the UK is easily available in stores like Tesco, Sainsburys, Waitrose and even in the Asian Grocery Stores. To freeze store-bought naan, you must place them in the freezer on the day of purchase. ALWAYS Reheat the Naan just before serving, as they tend to dry out quickly.

But this one? Fluffy, bubbly and CHEWY, just like you get at Indian restaurants. It’s so incredible, you’d swear it’s just been pulled from a tandoor! Bonus: It’s mind-bogglingly easy.

, bubbly naan has eluded me for years. Every other recipe I tried – and believe me, I’ve tried so many I’ve lost count – are just basic flatbread recipes with no real crumb integrity and absolutely none of the signature

It’s difficult to capture how chewy and fluffy this naan bread is in a photo – so let me try to show you instead with some live action:

Naan Bread Recipe

Yerrrrrssss. And the most incredible thing? Naan dough is so easy to make. There is no kneading involved. Really. There is nothing tricky about it at all!

Here’s what you need to make the puffiest, fluffiest, bubbliest naan of your life. No fiercely hot tandoor required (unless that’s how you roll … )

“No yoghurt?” I used to be an advocate of yoghurt in naan bread, believing it to be the “secret ingredient” that made naan different from “just another flatbread”.

But actually, yogurt weighs the naan down and makes it a bit gummier inside. Added yoghurt is no challenge for the nuclear-level 480°C heat of a tandoor … but in a home kitchen, the naan is better without yogurt. It’s just fluffier!

This section may look lengthy, but I promise this naan recipe is not hard. I’m just breaking down the steps for you and showing thorough process photos so you can have

My dough went further than double in size, probably triple, because it was a very hot day when I made this! It’s still ok if it rises this much.

Simple Naan Bread Recipe [no Yeast]

I’m going to be honest, I’ve no idea whether you can even find Cheese Naan in India (please chime in, in the comments!). But it’s a firm favourite around my neck of the wood. Certainly this Cheese-loving Carb Monster considers Cheese Naan one of the great achievements of modern mankind.

In restaurants, cheese naan is usually made by cooking plain naan first, then cutting a slit and stuffing inside the naan with cheese to melt.

That’s quite tedious and involves burnt fingertip agony I’m yet to fall in love with, so I’ve opted for a much simpler method:

Ingredient Dough Naan (no Yeast!)

Here’s what the inside of the cheese naan looks like – in case you’re wondering if I used enough cheese 😂 Be still my beating heart … ( excitement or cholesterol sirens? I can’t quite distinguish 🤔)

It was handy to discover that the naan recipe can be made ahead, refrigerated overnight and cooked up the next day – and it’s 100% perfect. It’s just as fluffy and soft. With the added bonus of even better flavour in the bread because as with many yeast breads, flavour develops with time!

I feel like I’m stating the obvious here by saying that the most natural, most obvious way to use naan is to scoop and slop up curries – Butter Chicken, Rogan Josh, Dal, Tikka Masala, to name a few!

Keema Naan Bread

Also think uses as a wrap: Stuff them, say, with Tandoori Chicken or Chicken Tikka (use the Chicken Tikka part of Tikka Marsala), along with some fresh Indian Tomato Salad with Mint Sauce for a complete meal in a wrap.

But then I realised: I’ve been devouring an inordinate amount of naan just as it is. Straight out of the skillet, with and without butter, cold, warm, reheated – and loving it like it is.

The lesson? Naan this good you can have it every which way. It’s 100% incredible. Make it once and
