I hesitate to pile in with yet more advice on this epic thread. but here goes.....

- we use both yeast and baking powder. The yeast is not so much for aeration - it does something to the texture

I'm assuming you use both, as in, both in the same mix. Not either / or?
Plain Flour or SR?  Protein level? Atta, maida or doesn't matter?


 allow about 1 level tbsp sugar and 1 tsp baking powder per naan - it should be a very sweet dough

That is far more sugar than I've ever seen used anywhere but I'll give it a try.


- never work with a dry dough; it should be almost too wet to handle
I am surprised by how wet the dough is in some of the videos I've watched recently.

Now the big question.
Other flavouring agents? 
I read and posted somewhere here about the use of Rose Water and Cumin.
I tried a pinch of cumin in the last batch and it seemed to give me a hint of the flavour I think I maybe trying to achieve.  I'll try a little bit more next time.

Haven't really contributed much recently (if ever), and not really contributing anything new here - just some more H4ppy Naan porn and the mess you can make in the process :) A good couple of hours making a nice stack of naans :)





A nice afternoon's naaning - Korma now for the family :)

Yes but they look cooked to perfection, not everyone can achieve that
