GB's thread had me thinking about the different breads of India. I understand that it's partly regionalism, but I couldn't get a straight answer from my internet searches on the difference between paratha and naan. Is it the leavening? I know you can fill either one, although the recipes I found often had you filling paratha with vegetables and naan with things like garlic and paneer. Just wondering if anyone had a definitive answer as to the difference between these yummy breads. We have a middle eastern/indian/other parts of the world grocery nearby and they carry paratha, but not naan. I'm not a breadmaker, so I'd never make my own.
