They can be if you have naan at breakfast!
But to be fair I'm British, so I know bugger all about whether it's actually a thing in India. The book is from a restaurant heavily inspired by specific cafes in India that took a lot of British and Iranian traditions on board themselves, so it might have been one of those situations where someone made their best effort at a dish from home with the local ingredients
As a fellow Brit I have indeed done horrifying things with naan breads but mine weren't home made. What's the book? It sounds fantastic.
