Poppadom is made out of Udad (a type of lentil) and rice flour, mixed with oil, salt, white pepper, black pepper, and other spices. The dough is rolled, and dried for later use. Personally, it's easier and cheaper to buy this at one of the Indian grocers, or even online.
Naan is made similar to pizza dough, but authentic Naan is cooked in a tandoor oven. Unless you have one of these, get them fresh from an Indian restaurant, or frozen. The best place for frozen naan is Trader Joe's. Minute and a half in the oven, and add butter on top...
