Fresh naan is a soft, pillowy flatbread with origins in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisine. Traditionally baked in a tandoor oven, naan is made from a simple dough of wheat flour, water, yogurt, yeast, and a pinch of salt, sometimes enriched with butter or milk for extra tenderness. Its slightly chewy texture and subtle tang make it a versatile companion to a variety of dishes, particularly curries and grilled meats. Naan provides a good source of carbohydrates for energy, but depending on preparation, it may also be high in refined flour and calories, especially if brushed with butter or infused with additional fats. While delicious, moderation is key for those watching calorie intake or managing blood sugar levels. Pairing naan with nutrient-rich foods like vegetables and lean proteins helps create a more balanced meal.
