Add a splash of coconut cream or heavy cream for more richness.

Grated mozzarella or cheddar would work well sandwiched between the naan.

This recipe was developed by Jasmine Smith.

Bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes.

Let cool completely on baking sheet, about 15 minutes.

Cook onions and spices:

Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium.

Add onion; cook, stirring often, until softened and starting to caramelize, about 8 minutes.

Stir in tomatoes, sugar, and remaining 1 teaspoon salt.

Bring to a boil.

Serve topped with naan.

Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon butter.

Crispy naan can stay for one week at room temperature.

Or freeze soup in an airtight container for up to three months.

Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
