Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the salt.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the olive oil and warm water.
Using a spoon or your hands, mix the ingredients together until a shaggy dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it for 7-8 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball. Cover with a damp towel and let it rest for 15 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each ball into a thin, round disc, about 1/8-inch thick.
Heat a dry skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, place one rolled-out disc onto the skillet.
Cook for about 1-2 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the bottom develops light golden spots. Flip and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes more.
Repeat the process with the remaining discs, keeping the cooked bread covered with a clean kitchen towel to retain softness.
Serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite spreads, dips, or as an accompaniment to your meal.
