Our homemade naan is a butter naan made in tava. This is a simple butter naan recipe made with plain flour, yeast, little sugar, curd, ghee, and kala til. 

Making butter naan at home is not at all complex. We have made butter naan by ingredients that are easily available in every house pantry. Naan is prepared and relished in many ways yet the basic and authentic recipe remains the same. Traditionally, butter naan is made using refined flour, yet you can substitute it with whole wheat flour. We have made our tawa butter naan using refined flour and have used yeast. Yet some people use curd and baking soda for the fermentation of the flour. 

Be very careful while kneading the butter naan dough, if the dough would have not been kneaded well, the naan will come out chewy. 

Naan is the most well-known Indian bread and is popular the world over. Most Indian restaurants overseas will serve you a butter naan if Punjabi foodis on the menu.

However for those of us who do not have tandoors in our kitchens, here is a great way of preparing the butter naan using a non-stick tava. Serve them hot with any Subzi or Dal of your choice.

Recent research shows that small amounts of butter has positive effects on heart health. So diabetics too can have a small quantity of butter and balance it with other types of fats they consume.
