“Made these and kneaded by hand as no stand mixer. The dough was quite sticky to start with so had to add some flour but it got less so as the kneading went on and they turned out great. I would say too much salt in the butter for my taste but hubby loved them ” — a cook, 4.0★
“This is by far the best (plain) naan recipe I've tried, and I've tried many! It's easy to follow and the breads are fluffy and tasty with just the right amount of sweet and salt. Thank you Nicky.” — a cook, 5.0★
