Add 2-3 cloves of minced garlic to the melted ghee used for brushing at the end. You can also sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro.
Replace half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour (atta) for a nuttier flavor and more fiber. You may need a little extra liquid as whole wheat flour absorbs more.
Before rolling, flatten a dough ball and place a spoonful of filling (like spiced potatoes, paneer, or minced meat) in the center. Seal it and then roll it out carefully.
The carbohydrates from the all-purpose flour are a primary source of energy, making this bread a fulfilling accompaniment to any meal.

Roghni Naan is an indulgent bread made with refined all-purpose flour and ghee, making it high in carbohydrates and fats. It's best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced meal. For a healthier version, consider using part whole wheat flour.
Yes, the egg is optional. It adds richness and softness, but you can omit it entirely. The naan will still be delicious without it.
Absolutely. Heat a cast-iron tawa or skillet over medium-high heat. Place the naan on the hot tawa. Cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbles appear, then flip and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. You can then place it directly on a low flame for a few seconds to puff up, if you have a gas stove.
Store leftover naan in an airtight container or zip-top bag at room temperature for up to 2 days. To reheat, sprinkle with a little water, wrap in foil, and warm in a 180°C (350°F) oven for 5-7 minutes. You can also reheat it on a tawa.
