I made homemade naan chips drizzled with rosemary olive oil with a pinched a cayenne pepper (I ran out of Paprika) with dijonaise mustard dip. 

Ingredients

3/4 cup warm water
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
2 cups flour, plus more if needed
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 pinch baking powder
 3tablespoons olive oil (2 for the dough the remaining for later)
2 & 1/2 tablespoons sour cream (you can substitute this with yoghurt)
cornmeal, for dusting 
Cayenne Pepper
Mixed Herbs
 
 
In a small bowl, add the water and sprinkle yeast over top.  Allow to sit for about 10 minutes until foamy.

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.  Mix in olive oil and sour cream until mixture is crumbly.  Slowly stir in the yeast and water mixture until a ball of dough forms. Add more flour if your dough is slightly wet.


Knead dough on a floured surface for a few minutes until smooth.  Place the dough ball in a clean and greased bowl.  Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 to 2 hours.


Flip dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for a couple minutes.  Divide dough into 6 equally sized balls.  Dip each ball into flour and roll out to about 1/4 inch thickness.


Freeze dough for about 1 to 2 hours.

30 minutes prior to baking, preheat oven to 250 degrees. Cut dough into bite size.  Drizzle olive oil ( I used rosemary infused olive oil) a pinch of cayenne pepper  and mixed herbs (optional).

Bake for about 20 minutes, or until they start to brown.  
 
and voila, homemade naan chips :)
