Choose Correct Flour
The key lies in adding some whole wheat flour to the all purpose flour (maida). Also, add a little oil to the dough.Add Yeast
Yeast plays a vital role in aerating the dough, helping the naan achieve the desired soft texture. Ensure that it activates properly before adding to the dough.Add Yoghurt
In addition to making the naan soft, yogurt also imparts a subtle tangy flavour, enhancing its overall appeal.Allow Dough To Rest
Resting the dough allows the gluten to relax a little. By skipping this step, the naan (or any bread for that matter) could become tough and chewy.Use High Heat
Traditonally made in tandoors or wood-fired ovens, naan needs extremely high heat. So use the highest temperature and flame available in your kitchen.
