BUTTER NAAN

Description

A classic and indulgent Indian bread, Butter Naan is a leavened flatbread made with refined flour (maida), yogurt, yeast or baking powder, salt, and water, kneaded into a soft dough and allowed to rise. It is traditionally cooked in a tandoor (clay oven), where the high heat gives it a charred, smoky flavor with golden brown spots and a pillowy texture. Once cooked, it is generously brushed with melted butter, adding a rich, buttery taste that makes it utterly irresistible.

Butter Naan is hugely popular across India, especially in cities like Delhi, Amritsar, Lucknow, and Mumbai, where it is a staple in dhabas, restaurants, and festive meals. Unlike plain naan, the addition of butter makes it extra flavorful and indulgent, perfect for special occasions or when craving something deliciously comforting.

This soft and buttery bread pairs perfectly with creamy curries like butter chicken, paneer makhani, dal makhani, and kebabs, soaking up flavors beautifully. Whether enjoyed at a local eatery or a fine-dining restaurant, Butter Naan remains a favorite among food lovers, adding warmth and richness to every meal!
