Boil potatoes in a pot of salted water until tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain, peel, and mash the potatoes in a large bowl.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and cook until they sizzle and become fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add diced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the skillet. Sauté until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in garam masala, turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1 more minute to toast the spices.
Add frozen peas and cook until they are heated through, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir the mixture into the mashed potatoes.
Mix in chopped cilantro and shredded cheese until well combined. This is your filling for the naan.
Preheat a griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat.
Take one piece of naan bread and place a generous spoonful of the filling on one side. Fold the naan in half to enclose the filling and press the edges gently to seal.
Cook the filled naan on the hot griddle for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy. Repeat with the remaining naan and filling.
Let the naan cool completely if preparing for freezing. Wrap each naan individually in plastic wrap or foil and place them in a freezer-safe bag.
To reheat, thaw the filled naan if frozen, and warm in a skillet, oven, or microwave until heated through. Serve hot with chutney or yogurt for dipping.
