Tawa Naan | Plain Naan || How to Make Tawa Naan with step-by-step photos.... 

Tawa Naan is the most popular bread in Pakistan, Traditionally naan is cooked in a tandoor (hot clay oven) But I find at home tawa naan is much easier to make, Tawa naan turns out soft and tastes great hassle-free no tandoor or no stove is needed.

Tawa naan is quite easy and simple, just like chapati but a little tricky part will be applied to make this naan, we are not cooking naan in the oven nor using any yeast in it
