Naan bread is a soft, pillowy flatbread originating from South Asian cuisine, particularly popular in Indian, Pakistani, and Bangladeshi dishes. Traditionally made using flour, yeast, water, and yogurt, the dough is often enriched with oil or ghee and baked in a tandoor, which gives it a characteristic smoky flavor and speckled appearance. Naan can be enjoyed plain or topped with garlic, herbs, or butter. Naan bread is a good source of carbohydrates, providing energy, but is less nutrient-dense compared to whole-grain breads. While it contains some protein from yogurt and flour, it’s often higher in calories and fat depending on added toppings or methods of preparation. Moderation is key if you're watching your calorie intake. Versatile and delicious, naan pairs perfectly with curries, soups, or dips, making it a staple in many meals while adding indulgent flair to your plate.
