Naan Machine

Like a bread machine, but for naan.

This amazing machine combines all the necessary ingredients, mixes and rises the dough, then individually bakes small flattened globs of dough in the built-in tandoor oven. Yumminess guaranteed.

Besides homemade Indian food, try naan with:

sloppy Joe, cream chipped beef, baked beans, eggs Benedict, Chinese takeout, fajitas, spaghetti, hummus, salsa or guacamole, Navajo tacos,...

or just eat them by themselves.

       it truly is an amazing machine.

       //Any thoughts as to how the machine would break the dough up in to smaller pieces for individual baking?//   

       I was thinking that the dough globs would be pinched off into a spinning cylinder that would flatten the dough before hurling it into the tandoor. That's right; I have no clue.

       I prefer to cook my naan on an iron skillet under a broiler (just let it heat up till a flour dusting will brown first). Tandoors are a bit of a pain to carry around.

have iron skillet, will travel.
but I’ll give it a (+) none the less.

Did anyone else find it strangely coincidental that the race in Babylon-5 that most looked like naan bread, were called, "The Narn"? </tjisosfgm>

       Don't want to be the voice of dissent here, but this is being very well bunned for what is just a slightly modified breadmaker. Oh well, such is the mystery of the 'bakery.

       [wagster], that's because everyone's mouths are watering at the thought of fresh nan. This is truly a must-have kitchen appliance.

       Next up, a toaster type device that hurls poppadoms?

       Poppadom-frisbee: there's potential there. First one to make it into a good idea wins some croissants.

       Croissant maker?

       If you give me naan, I'll give you a bun no matter how wobbly or possibly baked beyond belief the idea is. +

       My neighbor makes roti all the time ... it looks like naan. Nonetheless ,,, yummy. If anyone wants to make a versatile machine, it must produce macaroons as well.

       This invention is Naan-sense (+)
energy guy, Oct 14 2005
  

       You don't know naan about naan. (ebonic reference: 'nann' means nothing. Amongst many other translations. Such is ebonics.)

       If this ever makes a nan, it will become unstable and self destruct. This reminds me of a song.   

       One little, two little, three little dirty nans, four little, five little, six little dirty nans, seven little, eight little, nine little dirty nans -- ten little filthy nans!   

       There were ten in the bed, and the little one said, 'postdecrement, postdecrement' So they all postdecremented and everything self destructed.
