About Butter Naan
Butter naan is our plain naan with butter added the moment it leaves the oven. The dough is maida — refined white flour — leavened with yogurt and a little baking powder so it bakes soft and puffed, quite different from the leaner whole-wheat rotis. It is rolled out and slapped by hand onto the inside wall of our real charcoal tandoor at around 480°C, gripping the clay and baking in about ninety seconds, with brown spots on top and a light char where it held to the wall. As it comes off, it is brushed generously with melted butter — about 25 grams per piece — which sits on the surface rather than soaking all the way through, giving the bread a glossy top and a richer flavour than the plain version.
Ghee can be used instead of butter if you ask. It is halal-friendly with no pork. The added butter makes it a touch heavier and very satisfying alongside robust curries; it is best eaten hot and fresh from the tandoor. If you prefer it lighter, simply order the plain naan.
The dining room seats 30-40 across two styles — standard tables and Dastarkhan-style floor seating. Quiet in the early evening, busy from 8 PM.
Bread is made to be eaten with something, so the full menu is the place to pick the gravy it belongs to — and this note on our tandoor explains where the blistering and the char come from. It sits in our Breads menu, and regulars often order it alongside Paneer Butter Masala.
