By the way, the naans are ideally cooked in a tandoor, like this...... :P

Thank you Mr. Ander I'm off to make the dough up now..... I'll let you know how I get on lol

Great post btw

**EDIT** made them today and they taste very good  ;D Thanks again for a great recipe CA :-*

You're right about brushing with ghee too, it does improve the flavour and crispness ;)

now when I've cleared some room in my freezer I'll have a pop at some peshwaris ;D

I think someone asked whether they make the 'table' or 'family' nans in a standard tandoor oven and the answer is yes they do! i saw it on one of the sky channels the other week, it's incredible how one person manages to get this whopping great piece of unruly dough, first into the required size and shape, and then onto the sides of the tandoor oven. He patted it on with a sort of pillow to make it stick.The chap had both his arms in the tandoor at one time, how the hell do they take the heat?

Hey,

Made these last weekend and they were excellent.  Very chuffed with how they turned out.

I have a question though about why you keep the dough in the fridge overnight? I made this dough and wrapped it and left it on the bunker for a couple of hours before I made them.  Would making the dough the day before make much difference?

Going to have to make these again today as I wimped out and only made half the amount last week in case I buggered them up. All of them got eaten though as they were that good!  ;D

I used this recipe yesterday and they were tasty.  Initially I made the first one too thick, but by rolling the dough thinner they bubbled and were much better.

Can you only do this with a cast iron tava ?

Is it possible to achive it with a frying pan if the heats gets up?
