Naan is a unique and popular flatbread with a chewy texture that has its roots in India. Its name comes from the Persian word for bread.

Steps to make Chewy and Light Naan Bread:
- Put all the ■ ingredients in a bread machine, and leave the bread machine to do everything until the 1st rising (or hand-knead).
- Divide the dough into 4, and rest for 10 minutes, making sure it doesn't dry out. (I alway invert a bowl over the dough to prevent it from drying out.)
- Spread a little olive oil on the dough as you stretch and press it out.
- When the dough has stretched out a bit, if you hold the middle of the dough between both hands and shake it around in circles, it will stretch out even more.
- Press out any thick parts of the dough to finish. The naan should be more than 20 cm in diameter. If it has thick and thin parts, that's fine!
- Cook the naan in a non-oiled frying pan. Cook on one side for 2 minutes with the lid on, turn over and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side with the lid on.
- Turn it over one more time, and cook without the lid until crispy, for about 1 minute to finish. If the surface is not browned enough, cook it a little longer.
- Eat dipped in loads of curry sauce. The best!
- Topped with cheese.
