Top tips:
- To make them extra special, brush the naans with a low fat spread and sprinkle with poppy or sesame seeds before baking.
- Flaked almonds, dried fruit, coconut and spices could be added to the naan mix before baking.
- Make a meal out of your naan. Once baked, stuff with your favourite curry.
