I'm working on making decent naan at home. My Indian coworkers are trying to help. It was better the second day after fermenting overnight. I hope that bread flour and a new recipe will improve it even more.

I used the western analog of a tawa/tava. I wrote up some notes in this comment.

Ooh interesting! I’ve tried making naan before using a normal cast-iron pan and while it tasted good I never got those spots like you did. Nice job 👍

Thanks! It's pretty...now I need to figure out how to make it delicious.

The YouTube video I linked to shows the method that I used.

Maybe brush it with melted butter and crushed garlic? Sprinkle some finishing salt and a few pieces of cilantro if you’re into that sort of thing?

Honestly I rarely would eat this by itself… Rather I would dip it in chicken tikka masala for example.

I eat it with butter chicken, or whatever curry is around. My son makes naan pizza.
