Intro
Yes, You heard it right. Naan can Pizza.
Naan is dated back to approx. 2,500 years and has now become the popular bread in parts of Asia, like India, and its neighboring countries Pakistan, Afghanistan, Myanmar. It's a flatbread made with flour and water, often made in a Tandoor (a traditional clay oven) ,sometimes on a metal griddle. There's an assortment of naans like Garlic naan, plain naan, butter naan, Peshwari naan with nuts on top, and many more.
Naan is served uniquely in different regions of the world making it a unique flat bread. It is served as a complement with curries to make a meal, or simply with tea or coffee for breakfast.
Naan can be bought from a store or made at home following few easy steps, by adding water to flour, instant yeast, and oil and make into a soft dough. Since naan can be prepared in many ways, I would love you to try this homemade pizza with naan as a makeshift pizza base. It is easy ,vegan, vegetarian, dairy free, and deliciously homemade.
