Pakistani Naan is a soft, flatbread that originates from South Asian cuisine and is a staple in Pakistani households. Traditionally made with flour, water, yeast, and a touch of salt, it may also include yogurt or milk for extra softness and richness. Naan is prepared in a tandoor oven or on a stovetop, resulting in its characteristic charred spots and fluffy texture. It is often brushed with ghee or butter, adding flavor but also increasing its calorie count. This bread is energy-dense, providing carbohydrates for quick fuel, though its refined flour base offers fewer nutrients compared to whole-grain alternatives. Naan is beloved for its versatility, pairing excellently with hearty curries, grilled meats, or fresh chutneys. While it’s a comforting and satisfying option in moderation, those mindful of their health may opt for whole-wheat versions or limit the butter topping to make it a lighter choice.
