- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 200°C (400°F). Allow it to fully reach temperature so the naan crisps quickly once inside. A well-heated oven ensures the toppings warm evenly without drying out the bread.
- Prepare the base: Place the naan on a baking sheet lined with parchment for easy cleanup. Spread the tomato sauce over the surface in a thin, even layer, reaching close to the edges for consistent flavor. A smooth coating helps the mozzarella melt into the sauce instead of drying on top.
- Add toppings: Arrange the tomato slices over the sauced naan, spacing them slightly so moisture can evaporate and prevent sogginess. Place the pieces of fresh mozzarella evenly across the top; the cheese will melt outward as it bakes, covering more surface area naturally.
- Season and oil: Drizzle the olive oil lightly over the toppings to encourage browning and add richness. Sprinkle the dried oregano along with a pinch of salt and pepper. These simple seasonings deepen the tomato flavor and complement the mild mozzarella.
