Simple Ways To Add More Flavor

This salmon dish has excellent flavor, with the freshness from the vegetables, cream sauce, and pickled onions. But you can easily add more flavor to suit your tastebuds. Here are some suggestions:

  1. Fresh Herbs: Add some fresh herbs such as oregano, basil, or even chives.
  2. Cheese: Add some shredded cheddar cheese, gouda, or even feta.
  3. Sauces: Add sour cream, Greek yogurt, or even sriracha over the top.

Recipe Notes:

Crispy Crust: The best way to get an extra crispy crust is to pre-baking your crust before adding your toppings. Then remove the naan, add your toppings, and return to the air fryer.

Healthier Optin: You can also use whole-wheat naan or even homemade naan for this bread. If you want to make this recipe gluten-free, you can switch them to gluten-free naan. Also, this recipe can be adapted to keto-friendly and low-carb by using a keto or low-=carb friendly option.
