Butter Naan

Naan is a very common flat bread in India.But I never tried it out at home ,every time there were some obstacles to get over.Finally yesterday I accomplished the preparation of butter naan.To be frank,the shape didn't come out as the naan particular although the bread was soft an fluffy.My husband's compliment was never bother about the shapes,the taste matters.I was surprised to hear that comment.I served it with the butter chicken.I had thought of posting it together but both the recipes are too long and so separated the posts.Do try this heavenly combo a try & enjoy !!!
