You simply cannot make authentic naan in a home oven. Our kitchen uses a traditional cylindrical clay tandoor heated by charcoal to temperatures exceeding 900°F. When you order, our chefs stretch the dough over a cloth pad and literally slap it onto the superheated inner wall of the oven. The dough sticks, bubbles, and bakes in less than 90 seconds. We then pull it out with long iron hooks, ensuring a smoky, charred, and perfectly blistered flatbread.
The perfect authentic garlic naan in Oakland requires patience. We use fine white flour (maida) mixed with a touch of yogurt and baking powder. The dough must rest and ferment for hours to develop its signature stretchy, chewy texture. Right before baking, we press generous amounts of finely minced raw garlic and fresh cilantro directly into the dough. As it bakes, the garlic roasts instantly against the clay wall, releasing an incredible aroma.
