KEEP IT SIMPLE

Tools & supplies

Oven and rack

Crisps the naan base.

Existing household oven and its rack are the intended equipment.

STEP BY STEP

Make it

  1. Heat

    Preheat oven to 425°F.

  2. Sauce

    Place naan bubble-side up and divide sauce between them, leaving a border.

  3. Top

    Add both cheeses and a light sprinkle of Italian seasoning.

  4. Bake

    Place on the oven rack for 7–8 minutes, until cheese melts and begins browning.

  5. Finish

    Lift onto a cutting board, scatter basil over both and slice.

Good to know

  • Keep toppings light so the middle heats through.
  • A baking sheet makes transfer easier but may give a softer base.
