    This was great for what I was expecting. It was not perfectly authentic, but it was easy to prepare, I had all the ingredients on hand, and my kids loved it. It was kind of bland by itself, but it was delicious when used to scoop up the pork vindaloo with which I served it. It was also yummy with butter and honey. I will make it again.

    Naan,Naan is a central Asian flatbread, most often seen in U.S. in Indian restaurants. Its unusual shape (long and flat) gives it both a chewy and crispy texture. This recipe is based on the one in “Baking with Julia”, a wonderful book full of savory and sweet baked goods that Julia Child and many collaborators have contributed to. Cooking time includes refridgeration.,This was great for what I was expecting. It was not perfectly authentic, but it was easy to prepare, I had all the ingredients on hand, and my kids loved it. It was kind of bland by itself, but it was delicious when used to scoop up the pork vindaloo with which I served it. It was also yummy with butter and honey. I will make it again.,Turned out a little too bready, not enough flat. That may have been in part because we didn’t poke the holes in. I added garam masala and thyme for flavor and it was wonderful.
