For the kibbutz, see Na'an Naan (, Urdu/Persian: ???, ) is a round
flatbread made of white flour. Naan is a staple accompaniment to hot meals
in Central and South Asia, including Afghanistan, Iran, India, Pakistan,
Bangladesh, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and the surrounding region. In Turkic
languages (such as Uzbek and Uyghur) the bread is known as nan. In Burmese,
naan is known as nan bya. It bears a resemblance to pita, but is softer in
texture. The first recorded history of Naan can be found in the notes of
Amir Khusrau (1300 AD) as naan-e-tunuk () (light bread) and naan-e-tanuri
() (cooked in a tandoor oven) at the imperial court in Delhi. Naan was in
Mughal times a popular breakfast food, accompanied by qeema or kabab, of
the royals.
