Naan

Naan is a soft, yeast-leavened Indian flatbread that is a must-have side for curry. Rip pieces off the oven-baked bread and use them to scoop up bits of meat or mop up any extra sauce from your meal. Naan can be served simply by being brushed with a little ghee or can get stuffed with a variety of fillings. Food & Wine's guide shows you how to make homemade naan, turn leftovers into crunchy chips orsubstitute naanin your next pizza recipe.

At Bindaas in Washington DC, chef Vikram Sunderam doesn't have a traditional tandoori oven, so why would he make a traditional naan? This flatbread is filled with bacon and cheddar cheese, in place of the traditional cottage cheese or paneer, and then fired a la minute in the restaurant's pizza oven. "The cheddar melts so nicely in the naan. Plus, it's justsoAmerican," says Sunderam.Slideshow: More Eggplant Recipes
