Notes
- If you'd prefer to bake your naan bread pizzas directly on the oven rack for a crispier crust, reduce the cook time to 8-10 minutes.
- Not a fan of cilantro? Skip it or substitute fresh parsley instead.
- Tikka masala has a little spice to it, but it is not overly spicy. The heat level though depends on exactly what kind of masala sauce you buy.
