Steps:
- Preheat the broiler. Heat 4 tablespoons butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until browned, about 4 minutes. Add the cilantro stems, 1 tablespoon garlic, the ginger and coriander. Cook, stirring, until the coriander seeds begin to pop, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Stir in the tomato paste and cook until brick red, about 30 seconds. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook, stirring, until juicy, about 2 minutes.
- Add 3 cups water, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the pot. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are soft, about 15 minutes. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon garam masala. Working in batches, transfer the mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Combine the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, 1 teaspoon garlic and 1/4 teaspoon garam masala in a small microwave-safe bowl; microwave until melted, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Place the naan on a baking sheet; brush with the butter and broil until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with the cheese and continue broiling until melted, 30 more seconds. Fold each piece of naan, then cut each in half.
- Divide the soup among bowls and top with the cilantro leaves. Serve with the naan.

- Apply some oil to the dough and also the sides of the bowl. Cover it with kitchen cloth or plastic wrap.
- Let it rise in warm place for about 3-4 hours or till it gets double or triple in size.
- Punch it down with your hand. Give it a single knead to make it smooth.
- Divide into 8 equal portions and make smooth balls.
- preheat the oven to the maximum temperature of your oven for about 20 minutes (Mine is 450 degree F). Also put your cast iron pan or pizza stone in the oven on top rack and let it get preheat as well.
- now roll it using rolling pin and board into oval shape of about 5-6 inch size.
- Roll couple of naans and arrange them on a plate and keep them covered.
- brush the top part with some water.
- Once oven is pre-heated. Carefully place it (water side down) on the pan.
- Because the pan is already hot, you will see nice bubbles right away.

NAAN
A truly divine naan is crispy on the outside, a little bit charred with brown spots, soft on the inside and a little chewy and fluffy in parts. Like pizza, it is cooked for a very short time at an extremely high temperature. That's why homemade naan often doesn't come close to naan in a restaurant that is made in a tandoor--an earthen wood or coal-fired oven. Can you make good naan at home, and is it worth even trying? YES! You can do this either on a pizza stone/steel or in a heavy cast-iron skillet/griddle. The surface needs to be searing hot, and I like to give a final char directly on the flame. The result: heavenly naan.

Steps:
- Combine the yeast and sugar with 1/4 cup warm water in a small bowl and mix well. Set aside until it begins to froth, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile combine 2 1/2 cups of the flour with the salt in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Make a well in the center and add the yeast-mixture, yogurt, ghee or butter, warm milk and lemon juice, if using. Mix well with your fingers until it forms a sticky or shaggy dough. Add more flour if too shaggy or a little water if too dry.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Place in a larger lightly-oiled bowl, tightly cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a draft-free place, such as an unlit oven, until doubled in size, 1 to 2 hours.
- If using a pizza stone/steel: An hour before baking, put a pizza stone or steel on the lowest oven rack and preheat to 500 to 550 degrees F. If using a cast-iron skillet/griddle, just before baking, heat the skillet or griddle on the stove over high heat until very hot, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Put some melted ghee or butter in a small bowl. Add the remaining flour to another bowl.
- Divide the dough into 8 balls. Dab each ball in flour, flatten on a lightly floured surface and stretch or roll into an oval shape, thinner in the center and slightly thicker on the sides. Don't worry too much about the shape; I love making various countries when I make my naan! Dust off any extra flour. Brush some ghee or butter on the top of each and sprinkle with nigella seeds if using (add a little more than you want as you will lose a bunch while charring).
- Transfer the stretched naan onto the hot stone or skillet. Cook until you see some bubbles on top, 2 to 3 minutes. Take it out with tongs and flash-cook over an open flame, turning it so that it gets a few brown charred spots on both sides. Spread with a generous pat of butter/ghee and serve hot. Repeat with the remaining naan.
SPICY NAAN
This is a reasonably simple recipe for an Indian flatbread. I got the recipe from a magazine and modified it. It's a bit time-consuming, but definitely worth it! Goes great with curries.

Steps:
- Proof yeast in 1/2 cup of the water: mix the water and the yeast and teaspoon of flour in a cup; cover and let sit until it's bubbly and active (5- 10 minutes).
- Mix the yeast/water, the milk and the rest of the water in a large bowl.
- Stir in 2 cups of flour (always stir in the same direction) until smooth.
- Add the salt, oil and cumin seeds and stir well.
- Add the remaining flour 1/2 a cup at a time until the dough is too stiff to stir.
- Turn out dough onto a lightly floured board.
- Knead well, until the dough is springy; only add enough flour to keep the dough from sticking to the board.
- Let dough rise in a lightly oiled bowl, covered with plastic, in a cool place for a few hours (warmer rising spot= shorter rise; I prefer leaving it longer).
- When the dough has risen to about double its original size, knead it down.
- Preheat the oven to 500ºF.
- I use unglazed quarry tiles in my oven when I make naan, attempting to mimic the tandoor ovens that are supposed to be used.
- If you don't have baking tiles, just use a baking sheet (I guess).
- Cut the dough into 12 equal pieces and form them into balls.
- Brush the top of each ball lightly with melted butter or ghee and let it sit for about 20 minutes before shaping (by the time you've formed the last ball, the first one has usually sat long enough).
- Shape and bake naan two at a time: first smoosh the ball down flat with your fingers, then stretch it out into an oval shape.
- Transfer to the oven using a baking peel, or some other lightly floured thing you can use to slide the breads into the oven.
- Bake for about 6 minutes, or until puffy and getting brown.
- Yum!

- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, instant yeast, kosher salt, and brown sugar. Add yogurt and mix until a dough forms. If it’s too dry add a tablespoon of water at a time until you have a slightly sticky, somewhat shaggy, but cohesive ball of dough. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size – roughly an hour (but could be sooner).
- Divide the dough into four pieces and roll each portion out, on a well floured surface, to a rough 9 inch circle. Keep rolled out dough separated by pieces of parchment paper while you finish the rest of the dough.
- Place a large skillet (cast iron or stainless steel work best) over medium high heat. Heat one teaspoon of oil until it shimmers but doesn’t smoke. Lay one dough round in the pan and immediately cover with a tight fitting lid (or a large rimmed baking sheet). Cook covered for two minutes. Remove lid and flip naan. Cook the second side, uncovered, until it is spotty brown. Wrap cooked naan in a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while you repeat the process with the rest of the dough.
- When all the naan has been cooked, wipe out the skillet with a paper towel and return to medium heat. Melt the butter and add the garlic, kosher salt, and chili flake. Sauté until garlic is light golden in color. Remove from heat. Spoon spicy garlic butter directly onto warm naan and garnish with parsley. Serve immediately.
