INTRODUCTION

I beg you to keep the wherewithal for this fantastic instant snack-cum-supper in your storecupboard. It's a lifesaver at this time of year!
METHOD

1.Preheat the oven to 220°C/gas mark 7. Lay the naan on a lined baking sheet.
2.Spread the tomato pulp or sauce over the naan, then tumble the drained mushrooms on top and sprinkle with the chopped cheese, before finally strewing with the thyme leaves stripped from the stalks.
3.Cook in the oven for about 5 minutes, by which time the cheese should be bubbling and melted. Be careful not to burn your mouth.
ADDITIONAL INFO

I’ve given my topping of preference; feel free to play about and make your own. All I feel strongly is that while shop – bought pizzas are vile, packet naans, when heated, are not.

REVIEWS

This is what I make when I'm home alone and don't want to admit I don't want to cook! Jealousy abounds when I tell my friends I had homemade pizza for dinner the night before. I made it once when my boyfriend stayed over and he raved over it! So simple and yet such a nice little treat!

well being an Indian I had never thought that Naan could be put to such good use

...and I thought I was very clever using Naan Bread as my pizza base recently!! The local shop had sold out of their bases so my OH bought naan bread, and boy, was it delicious with the topping on it! Now I discover that you have this on your list of recipes!!! What a time saver, though!!
