Description
Naan Khatai is a traditional South Asian shortbread cookie that originated in the Indian subcontinent. It’s a delicate, crumbly, and buttery treat with a hint of cardamom flavor, often enjoyed with tea or coffee. The name “Naan Khatai” is derived from the Persian word “Naan,” meaning bread, and the Afghan word “Khatai,” meaning biscuit. These cookies are typically made with flour, sugar, ghee (clarified butter), and flavored with cardamom or sometimes with nuts like almonds or pistachios. They have a rich history, dating back to the Mughal era, and remain a beloved snack in many households and bakeries across the region.
