1. Mix the flour, salt, yeast and oil in a large bowl and add enough water to make a soft, but not sloppy, dough. Knead well. Put into a lightly oiled bowl to rise for 1 hr until doubled in size.
2. Divide the dough into 8 pieces, about 250g each, and use a rolling pin to flatten each one into a circle, 15cm in diameter, about 1cm thick. Then leave the pieces on a lightly floured baking tray to prove for 5 mins. Heat a large frying pan to a medium heat and dry-fry each piece until browned on both sides, about 5 mins in total. Set aside to cool slightly before serving.

  Made this in my bread maker on dough setting. Added some black onion seeds. It was so easy and the results great. Made 8 large breads served them with an Indian style meal. I will make them again - they will go great with chlli and I will also make some smaller (16)ones to use with dips

  Really easy to make, very tasty although it can be a bit fiddly to roll them out! I have made them by hand and using the breadmaker, and by hand I think was best, for some reason the breadmaker mix was really sticky. I have added garlic and dried coriander too. Definitely agree with the other posts - you need to roll them as thin as possible otherwise they are bit doughy. I won't be buying shop ones again!

  I made this and was pleased with how quick and simple it was - although having used a lebanese recipe for a similar bread in the past - I was a little disappointed with how bland this one was. I might be tempted to up the salt a little or add a little garlic.

  Yes they can be frozen! There are only 2 of us at home so I tend to make a big batch to freeze, take them out to defrost at room temperature (30 mins) or pop them in the mircowave for couple of mins - yummy! i have also recently tried added some extra flavours; chilli, garlic, mixed herbs........... anything goes!

  Possibly the best naan bread I've ever had. Cooked perfectly and made 6 big circles. I had left it in the airing cupboard to rise and also added 3 cloves of garlic and a bunch of coriander before mixing in the water. I served it with the spinach and sweet potato curry. Om nom nom.

  These worked brilliantly when cooked freshly made, but a total disaster when I tried to cook them after freezing the dough. There aren't any instructions in the recipe on freezing, so I froze the dough uncooked. Big mistake as they were like cardboard when I cooked them (after defrosting) and not nice and soft like the fresh batch.
