LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray cookie sheet with Crisco® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray. In 3-quart saucepan, cook and stir 2 tablespoons of the butter, olive oil and onion over medium heat until onion is softened, about 3 minutes. Remove half of the onion with slotted spoon to small bowl; set aside to cool. To remaining onion in pan, stir in apple; cook an additional 3 minutes. Stir in curry powder, cinnamon, thyme, turmeric and celery salt; cook an additional minute, stirring constantly. Stir in soup and honey; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • 2 Meanwhile, to remaining onion, stir in cheese, cumin, salt and pepper; mix well. Remove dough from can; cut into 4 pieces. To make naan, roll each piece of dough into a ball. Flatten each ball slightly. Place 2 tablespoons of cheese mixture in center of each piece of dough; press into dough. Wrap dough around cheese and pinch dough to seal.
  • 3 On lightly floured work surface, roll each filled ball into 5-inch round. Place on cookie sheet. In small microwavable bowl, place remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Microwave on High 15 to 20 seconds or until melted. Brush both sides of rounds generously with butter.
  • 4 Bake 14 to 20 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown.
  • 5 Stir half-and-half into soup; heat an additional 2 minutes. Serve soup with warm naan.

I can see us making this recipe quite a bit. Especially in the winter. The soup really warms you up.The aromas filled the house. Its a nice change from just a can of soup and a sandwich. Tastes great, easy to make and you'll love the way all the flavors come together. Give it a try.

My kids were initially hesitant to try the soup because of the color (they can be VERY picky!) but once I got them to try it they really liked it. They really enjoyed the naan and the fact that they were allowed to pick it up and dunk it in their soup. Always great to find a recipe that the whole family loves!

Just tried this recipe last night and am already planning to make it again. I really loved the blend of spices in the soup, especially when using the naan for a little dunking. Perfect for a casual meal or even as a starter for a more formal dinner.

I love Indian food but am usually intimidated by the recipes I find, this recipe was a great introduction to homemade Indian! Using the soup and breadsticks as starters made this recipe super easy and was a big hit with my family. This one is definitely a new addition to our dinner rotation!

Loved this recipe! I love the old fashioned comfort of soup and sandwich anyway and this kicked it up a notch. To the previous reviewer-try the soup with the same spices, but use fat free half and half to cut back a bit on the calories. Skim milk doesn't mellow out the seasonings as much as half and half-it almost needs that extra fat to smooth out and blend all those demonstrative spices together. Fat free half and half seems to do the trick better than skim. Great recipe for anyone experimenting with other cuisines-simple to make and very tasty!
