Where does Naan originate?

The word Naan comes from Persia and simply means ‘bread’. The naan we recognise and enjoy from Indian restaurants is a type of leavened flatbread that originates in Northern India. A beloved staple of Indian cuisine, the traditional way to bake it is by slapping the bread dough on the tandoor, a hot dome-shaped clay oven. This is how the edges crisp and the famous charred parts are created. 

First introduced by the Delhi Sultans, along with the tandoor which brought with it new cooking techniques, naan is believed to date back to ancient times. Originally eaten by royals, over the centuries naan became more accessible for all classes to enjoy. A few more centuries later it was brought by William Tooke, a British historian, to the West. Now it would be unthinkable to exclude them when preparing or going out for an Indian meal.
