As Indians, we share a special love affair with our breads. We may have earned fans across the globe for of our indulgent curries, but let's admit, we have enjoyed them best with our desi breads. Parathas, puris, roth, naan, tandoori roti and appam, there is no dearth of breads out there. Naan is a generic Persian name for 'breads'. Naans are soft and chewy breads made usually by refined flour. They were popularised in the country, chiefly by the Mughal Khansamas. Naan can be of any kind; you can have it plain or stuff it with veggies or dry fruits of your choice. In this recipe, noted food blogger and YouTuber Manjula Jain shows us how to make yummy aloo naan at home.
