🫓 A Little Story
I still remember my time cooking in small cafés across Europe — customers loved pizzas, but my Indian heart always missed the comforting aroma of naan from the tandoor. One night, I had some leftover naan from a pop-up dinner and thought, why not give it a twist?
That’s how my first Naan Pizza was born — a perfect marriage of two culinary worlds. And today, thanks to Haldiram’s frozen naan, you don’t need a tandoor or hours in the kitchen to make it. Just heat, top, bake, and enjoy!
🍅 Ingredients
Base:
- 1 Haldiram’s frozen naan (plain, garlic, or butter naan)
For the Sauce:
- 2 tbsp pizza sauce or tomato ketchup
- 1 tsp olive oil or butter
- ½ tsp chili flakes
- ¼ tsp oregano or Italian seasoning
- A pinch of salt
Toppings (customize your way):
- ¼ cup grated mozzarella cheese
- ¼ onion, thinly sliced
- ¼ bell pepper, sliced (red, yellow, or green)
- 4–5 tomato slices
- Sweet corn, jalapeños, or green chilies (optional)
- Basil leaves or coriander for garnish
🔥 Method
1. Prepare the Naan Base
Remove Haldiram’s frozen naan from the pack and let it thaw for a minute. No need to defrost completely — just soften it enough to hold toppings.
2. Make the Sauce
In a small bowl, combine pizza sauce, olive oil, chili flakes, oregano, and salt.
This simple trick brings restaurant-style flavor to your home kitchen.
3. Assemble the Pizza
Spread the sauce evenly on the naan.
Top with cheese, onion rings, bell peppers, tomatoes, and any other favorite toppings.
4. Bake or Toast
- Oven: Preheat to 400 °F (200 °C). Bake 8–10 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Tawa/Pan: Cook on a covered pan over medium heat 6–8 minutes until cheese melts.
- Air Fryer: Air fry at 180 °C for 6–7 minutes.
5. Serve Hot
Garnish with basil or coriander, sprinkle extra chili flakes, and serve immediately.
👨🍳 Chef’s Tip
