Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Plain yogurt
- 0.25 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Chili flakes (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, and smoked paprika. Mix well to distribute the spices evenly.
Add the yogurt and water to the dry ingredients and stir until a dough begins to form.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 2-3 minutes until smooth. If the dough is sticky, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each into a ball.
Using a rolling pin, flatten each dough ball into a thin, round flatbread, approximately 6-8 inches in diameter.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and add 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil.
Place one flatbread on the heated skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is golden brown.
Flip the flatbread and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden and fully cooked. Repeat with the remaining flatbreads, adding more olive oil as needed.
Optional: Sprinkle with chili flakes for extra spice and garnish with fresh cilantro.
Serve warm with your favorite dips, spreads, or curries.
