Fiona Dann says
This was fantastic, so light and so easy to make. Puffed up perfectly. Once cooked i spread melted garlic butter over them which was delicious. Will never buy store bought again. Thanks for the recipe.
Alannah says
Keen to try these.. do you think I could have the recipe?
Thanks so much!
Lucy says
Absolutely!
Sharna says
I think you should amend the recipe times you have noted. I read the top, says total time is 25 mins with a prep time of 10 mins, perfect! I thought.
So I grabbed the ingredients and started to put them in as I needed to make them asap. Only to realise once all of the ingredients were already in the bowl that there is also a proving time of 1 hour.
It would have been great if the prep time included this time.
Lucy says
I'll add this in now! Thanks Sharna!

Absolutely delicious Naan bread! We grill the Naan is Ghee & then brushed with garlic butter once cooked - so good! We also put grated cheese & a sprinkle of coriander in a couple too & they were equally delicious!
Thanks so much for such a easy to follow tasty recipe. This will be our family favourite ?

That's fantastic!!!
Karina Wright says
Hi There, how would I make these ahead of time please? i would love to rise them then perhaps keep aside until they are ready for frying? I'm wondering if they will lose their rise? Thanks so much. 🙂
Lucy says
Hi Karina, you sure can!! Once you've made the dough you can place it into the fridge for up to 1 day. When you're ready to fry them, simply remove the dough from the fridge, roll out and fry.
Mel Ring says
Made these naans tonight to go with a cauliflower curry. Absolutely tasty and easy to make. Definitely recommend trying them. I grilled them which made them puff up beautifully.
Mel Ring says
