See how Indian breads are cooked to perfection in a tandoori oven with Anupy Singla. While naan is celebrated in the West, it's actually not the most commonly consumed bread in Indian households. Roti, a whole wheat flatbread, is the bread of choice and the workhorse of Indian bread. Watch how to prepare a roti to turn it into its delicious stuffed cousin, paratha. We will also showcase naan in an indoor tandoori oven in an Indian restaurant in Chicago.
