Ingredients
  

Version 1

  • 100 grams all-purpose flour
  • 100 millilitres hot water

Version 2

  • 100 grams self-raising flour
  • 100 millilitres hot water

Version 3

Instructions
 

For Version 1:

  • Combine flour and water in a bowl and knead until a soft dough is formed about 2-3 minutes. Rest, covered, for 10 minutes or longer, then divide the dough into 40 gram balls.
  • Preheat a pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Using plenty of flour to prevent sticking, roll each dough ball into a thin disk, about the thickness of a flour tortilla.
  • Without adding oil to the pan, cook on one side, then the other, flipping every few minutes. Use a spatula to press down on the flatbread to encourage it to puff up.
  • Optional: Brush with ghee or olive oil before serving or storing for later.

For Version 2:

  • Combine flour and water in a bowl and knead until a soft dough is formed about 2-3 minutes. Rest, covered, for 10 minutes or longer, then divide the dough into 40 gram balls.
  • Preheat a pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Using plenty of flour to prevent sticking, roll each dough ball into a thin disk, slightly thicker than a flour tortilla.
  • Without adding oil to the pan, cook on one side, then the other, flipping every few minutes until golden and cooked through. The flatbread should puff slightly.
  • If you’re using this flatbread as a pizza crust, now’s the time to top it with your fave pizza toppings and bake it. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For an optional third ingredient, add a pinch of salt!
  • For a spiced up version, add a teaspoon of cumin seeds to the dough. They toast up in the pan and add a lovely crunch and flavor!
