"naan" news and stories

If you've been a reader of Slashfood for a while, then you might know that I am a huge, HUGE, fan of Indian food. Sadly, aside from a a few decent attempts at vegetable samosa, I couldn't cook Indian food at home to save my life, let alone smack a ball of dough inside a oven to bake naan.

However, if you have it in you to prepare an Indian meal and want to include that delicious fluffy flatbread, head over to Ooh You Tasty Little Things for a quick recipe for naan. From the picture, they look a bit like pancakes, but I have no doubt in my mind that these babies were absolutely delicious, especially with fresh garlic mixed in!

Normally, the words "food porn," conjure images of decadent desserts, soft, sultry, totally sexy sweets oozing with chocolate and frosting, dressed in nothing more than a dollop of whipped cream, and perhaps a few berries that have toppled off onto the plate in the haste to get to the...table.

But food porn isn't just desserts; it's anything that makes my eyes widen and mouth salivate when I look at it, like a couple of pieces of thick, fluffy, puffy, soft and chewy, charred-in-all-the-right-places naan stuffed with sweet onions. I've had garlic naan many times before. Onion naan was my first time. I might, just might, not ever go back to garlic naan again.
