In theory, naan should be cooked on the inside walls of a clay tandoor oven.
Anything else is not authentic.
I have one of these pizza makers with the dish and I think it might be a little small for naan.  I'm wondering how it would go in a hot frypan??

We cook naan (using Chookie's recipe) in a frypan on the wok burner on the BBQ - it gets the pan very hot.
I agree I don't think you can replicate naan cooked in a tandoor oven, but it's still very yummy.

Amanda. a friend makes my recipe and cooks it in a hot frying pan.  As you say ,  not authentic but good.

KarenH,  yes that is a reusable one. 

This afternoon I am going to try making cake base in the deep dish.  Let you know how I go.

I love naan bread and if it tastes good it doesn't matter if it's authentic or not.  ;)
Not many will have a tandoor oven in their home.
I make tandoori chicken regularly just in my oven and it's yummy

Oh poop, now I want one too.

You're so right about taking ages for the oven to heat up! And, if I can use it for other things as well with the deep dish, then it's worth it.

I had an electric pizza maker before, a Breville one and it was crappy. It ended up dying anyway. Checking out the black one as I type.

It's $137.95 here.

A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

You won't be sorry MJ - it's a great little machine. I've had mine for several years & it's still going strong.

The chooks ate very well this afternoon.!!!!!  I made several cakes.  Nearly there.!!!!   The trick is to cook them ,  without burning the top or bottom.   I want to serve the cake with either yog. Or cream,  or custard and fresh fruit.  
Cooking Naan for Dinner,  well I think I am.  Keep you posted.

I've just ordered mine tonight - didn't get CP's special price though. Your naan bread looks great Chookie.  I'm presuming you did your recipe I have linked to or is there a recipe book that comes with the pizza maker with one in it?
