Much more concise and to the point than happy chris's ramblings although the naan does look a bit stiff and i do like my naan with a bit more of a crispy bubble top (if that makes sense), which you get from the gas tawa method imho.

I do prefer the gas method over electric.

This guy was probably the first to show the inverted method. Way before Shilpi, h4ppy And CBM.

I don't think anyone has hailed Chris as the inventor of this method. What I would say is that the naans shown in both of these videos look like the kind of frisbees I used to make in my oven attempts.

The H4ppy Naans are the closest to texture and taste I have come across :)
