Fry it for around 3 minutes on low flame and add finely chopped tomatoes. Cover it and cook it for some time. Now add green chili, fresh coriander, salt, crushed red chili. Cook it and make sure there is no water remaining in qeema.

Divide the dough in 4 equal parts. Take one piece fill it with qeema and make round shape with ur hand or u can use rolling pin. Lay these naans on baking tray. In a pre heated oven put this tray on the lowest shelf first for 2 minutes to cook the bottom part then move it to highest shelf for 3-5 mins (approx) take them out and brush with butter.
