Indian Naan
Recipe by:
Lynda McCormick
Naan is traditionally made in a brick and clay tandoor oven. It does not brown like other breads. It should be baked only for 60 seconds or less. It will still be white although it may have a couple brown spots like a cooked flour tortilla. Naan should be served immediately after preparing.
