Butter garlic naan
Butter garlic naan is a soft Indian bread garnished with lots of chopped garlic and is infused with the garlic flavor.It is most often accompanied with the North Indian gravy.I prepared Butter Chicken and Tandoori murg with this which is a very good combination.Traditionally it is baked in an Indian oven called as Tandoor. But it is mostly found only in restaurants or in North India especially Punjabi homes.
