I wish I could make my own naan. It’s so much better with those. But somehow I failed all my attempts at baking those :-/
One good thing about living in Pakistan/ Qatar is that you get em fresh everywhere. Like 10 steps away from your house theres someone making em fresh.
Also the baking method is inferior if making them at home, they are best made on the pan (when you stick it to the pan woth water and cook the other side overturning your pan and letting the flame hit it directly)
I'm sure you could find a yt video explaining it
