My family loved this recipe. We tried over naan recipes before but didn't work out.
This was easy to make and delicious. I like it better than the restaurant naan.

OK. I made this again and didn't double the recipe. It turned out great. Easy to work with. Burned a little bit at first but thats my fault. I now know where to keep the heat on my stove. I couldn't find nigella seed but I used fennel seed and it added a nice subtle flavor. Made a black bean humus and it paired great with the naan. i'll certainly make this again. Very easy to make.

Loved this bread! Easy to make. I left it to rest overnight in the fridge and it was easy to work with the next day. I shaped it by hand, and did not roll out with a rolling pin, using lots of flour. I'm using the leftovers to make pizza. Way better and cheaper than the store bought versions.

I was very disappointed with this recipe. I prepared it gluten free using my favorite all purpose flour. I thought I'd try a new recipe and I'm sorry that I did. My old recipe turned out like pita, this recipe is chewy and gummy. Not at all what I was looking for to go with my Tikka Masala. Back to the old recipe for sure!

Awesome recipe and so easy! I've made this dozens of times with different variations and it's been delicious every time. Our favorite is 50/50 white/whole wheat flour with a few tablespoons of flaxseed (healthier version. You can change the flavors in different ways depending on what you serve the naan with; garlic/dill, fresh herbs, crushed red pepper flakes and cilantro, etc. Also makes great pizza crust by adding oregano. I make this at least once a week and everyone loves it, including my picky 7-year old nephew! Thanks Aarti!

This is the closest I think we can get to the ones they make at restaurants. Really soft Naans. My dough wasnt too sticky. I guess it also depends on the moisture in the air and weather. This recipe was super simple and except for the time where you need to let it rise, rolling and cooking them in cast iron skillet takes no time. I rolled the Naan's a little more thinner as they puffed up quiet a bit. Overall, I would rate this as a success. Thank you Aarti !

Just like at the Indian restaurants! Yay!! The yogurt really made the difference. And the hint of using the cast iron skillet worked great. I didn't add the seeds or butter, but honestly, the recipe stood on its own without it. I've made this several times, and the naan came out perfect each time.

This came out amazing! I didn't have a cast iron skillet so I used a regular griddle to cook the naan. It worked perfectly. We also crushed some garlic and added it to the butter to make garlic naan. The fennel and nigella seeds added great flavor to it as well. Can't wait to make it again for guests!

Was making Tikki Masala and realized that I'd forgotten to buy some Naan from the market as I usually do. So I searched online hoping that there was a simple recipe for Naan to be found. Soooo, glad I did!! This was such a tasty and simple recipe to follow that I can't imagine why I'd need to trek to the market for it EVER again. Even my husband who is not bread person kept reaching for more at the dinner table. I was in a hurry so I grabbed my fast rise yeast and quickly mixed the ingredients--sans the optional flavorings--covered it , and put the bowl to the side to rise while I finished the Masala and hoped for the best. 45 minutes later it had risen nicely and was ready to roll out. I don't have a cast iron skillet. So I just sprayed my frying pan with olive oil and dropped the bread in. It came out beautifully, with those bubbly char marks and everything. Basted the loaves with butter and sprinkled with kosher salt. THE BEST!

Tried Naan for the first time in Bahrain. Had to have it. This was a good recipe but will take a little more practice for this novice. Never-the-less it came out very good. the cast Iron skillet (I bought just for this was perfect.
