The one dish I missed for years after going wheat free was naan. It’s so good and such a staple in Indian cooking. I’ve experimented a bit with naan recipes and while you never truly get that stretchy, chewy texture that gluten based flour provides, this is an excellent, savory substitute that will absolutely be your go to replacement! You can even use this same recipe to make pizza crust. (Just toast it in the oven for a few minutes after the griddle and before adding pizza toppings.
Naan is basically like a spoon to scoop various kinds of curries. Pair naan with tikka masala, vindaloo, madras or any other type of yummy Indian dish.
Be sure to see The H Lyfe Method’s mint chutney recipe for an excellent drizzle sauce as well as spinach kofta and pumpkin curry recipes.
