Work is super stressful right now and I could use some comfort food ideas. Especially since mine tend to involve carbs but I think carbs are making me bloat in a way they didn’t when I was 20. (Aside: getting older sucks.) Never been a fan of ice cream either.
Mine are typically mashed potatoes, or potatoes generally, and plain bean and rice burritos, cheese optional. My husband thinks I’m crazy because it’s all so plain but when I’m sick or stressed and my stomach is upset, that’s what I want.
Grilled chicken and a bunch of vegetables (shredded carrots, cabbage, pickled onions, etc) on fresh made naan smeared with hummus. I like some Nandos Garlic sauce on it as well
How do you make your naan bread? I’ve been making a quick and easy one with yogurt, flour and baking soda, and they’re good, but not quite as good as ‘real’ ones.
Does naan not mean “bread”?
I believe the root of the word means ‘bread’ etymologically. But even in Hindi, नान means a flatbread that looks very like what English speakers would mean by naan, a flat bread, ideally baked in a tandoor.
I use this recipe, myself. Ive had good results

I mix all the dry ingredients together thoroughly (otherwise the yeast clumps with the butter/ghee badly) before mixing the whole dough, and use the hottest water from my tap.
