Nankhatai (Hindi: नानख़ताई Urdu: نان خطائی‎) are shortbread biscuits popular in India and Pakistan.[1] The word Nankhatai is derived from Persian word Naan meaning bread and Khatai from an Afghan word meaning Biscuit.[2][3] In Afghanistan and Northeast Iran, these biscuits are called Kulcha-e-Khataye. Kulcha is a type of bread similar to Naan.[4]
