About One naan
Naan is a popular flatbread originating from South Asian cuisine, particularly Indian, Pakistani, and Afghan traditions. Made with a combination of all-purpose flour, yeast, water, yogurt, and a hint of sugar, this soft and fluffy bread is traditionally cooked in a tandoor oven, giving it a slightly smoky flavor. Naan is often brushed with butter or ghee, and variations may include toppings like garlic, sesame seeds, or herbs. While naan is rich in flavor and pairs beautifully with curries and stews, it is typically high in refined carbohydrates due to its white flour base. The addition of yogurt provides a slight protein boost, but the use of butter or ghee can contribute to higher fat content. As a versatile accompaniment, naan is best enjoyed in moderation, especially for those monitoring caloric intake or maintaining a balanced diet.
