1.Prepare the Dough

   - In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

   - Flip the naan and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until it puffs up and gets brown spots.

6.Finish with Butter (Optional)

   - Brush the cooked naan with butter for an extra buttery flavor and aroma. Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired.
