Recipe View 4 mins Cook the Naan: Preheat broiler. Cover a baking sheet with foil and grease lightly. Brush each naan with remaining melted ghee and sprinkle with kalonji seeds. Broil one at a time until puffed and lightly browned, about 1-2 minutes per side. Watch carefully to prevent burning.

For a richer flavor, use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour. You can use butter if you don't have ghee.
For extra flavor, brush the naan with garlic butter after broiling.
