Plain naan bread is a soft, pillowy flatbread originating from South Asian cuisine, often associated with Indian and Pakistani culinary traditions. Traditionally made with flour, water, yeast, and a touch of yogurt or milk, naan bread is cooked in a tandoor, giving it a distinct charred and chewy texture. Its mild flavor makes it a versatile accompaniment to stews, curries, and grilled meats. Nutritionally, plain naan provides carbohydrates for energy and small amounts of protein from the flour and dairy ingredients. However, typical store-bought or restaurant naan can contain added oils, butter, or ghee, increasing saturated fat and calorie content. It is not gluten-free and may also be high in sodium, depending on preparation. While delicious, naan bread is best enjoyed in moderation within a balanced diet. Opting for whole wheat versions or lighter alternatives can enhance its nutritional value.
