I noticed in the video that chef applied a spread of creamy cheese into this one before adding the other ingredients and refolding the dough.

in the video i posted above it's not cream cheese that's being spread, its creamed coconut paste (either pre-creamed coconut block, like pataks creamed coconut sachets, or you can make your own with coconut flour and mixed with a little bit of single cream)

I missed it too.

they just used a big block of mild, coloured cheddar, the big catering sized blocks, grated and sprinkled onto the cooked naan, then used a gas tap-off the tandoor like a flamethrower to melt it... health & safety exec would probably have a fit!  ;D

for home use, a little cooks blowtorch would do just as well

hope thats useful

So with this method, which I assume is for a Cheese Naan (or other name), I take it that the cheese is sprinkled then melted on top of the naan with a flame gun. Am I correct?

The Cheese naan we get out here actually has the cheese spread out inside it in a similar way to how the video shows the Peshwari being done. I have only been able to find 1 video (Indian in Parsi) that showed anything like it and I couldn't get the type of cheese from it.  I can't remember where I saw the Laughing Cow but again it wasn't in English.

In my earliest attempts I used to make 2 thin naan spread the cheese out and sandwich it before cooking but I have since tried the single method as shown.  this works well but I just can't get the right type of cheese.  Cheddary in flavour, but quite strong (but not like vintage or tasty cheese strong) and obviously creamy enough to be spread in a similar way the video shows the coconut paste being applied.

I'd think any cheap chedder, or even none cheese slices or the Oz equivalent, would do the job.

Cool and genuine reply about the Naan making SP, spot on in fact.
Your description is exactly what I know and would expect.
The guys I know, either mix it directly in the sink or the 20lt pots they use for rice etc
