Naan is most familiar and very popular in the South Asian countries like India, Pakistan at in all restaurants and road side dhabas. There are different kinds of Naan, some are stuffed and some are not stuffed (plain). Plain Naan is obviously delicious but the Stuffed Naan is tastier too. There are different types of Stuffed Naan like Potato, Paneer, onion, Cauliflower etc. Today, I have decided to make Stuffed Cheesy Spinach Naan.

    Whenever use baking powder not to add oil because oil is a substitute of baking powder.Both are acid. Oil is a liquid fatty acid whereas baking powder is a powder acid.While preparing naan dough instead of oil add ghee with baking powder.
