🧂 1 teaspoon salt
🥄 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
🫒 1 teaspoon oil for dough
🫒 oil for cooking

Instructions

1- Mix Dry Ingredients:

In a clear glass mixing bowl, place 250 grams of flour.
Add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder to the flour.
Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly using a metal mixing spoon.

2- Combine with Liquid:

Create a well in the center of the flour mixture.
Into this well, pour 1/2 cup of warm water and 1 teaspoon of oil.
Stir with the spoon, gradually incorporating flour into the liquids until a rough dough forms.

3- Knead Dough:

Transfer the dough onto a clean wooden cutting board.
Knead by hand until it becomes smooth and pliable.

4- Portion and Shape Dough:

Shape the kneaded dough into a cylinder.
Using a metal dough cutter, divide the cylinder into four equal portions.
Roll each portion into a thin, oval shape using a wooden rolling pin.
Poke small holes into each flatbread with a fork.

5- Cook Flatbreads:

Heat a grill pan over medium heat; lightly coat the surface with oil.
Place a flatbread onto the hot grill pan.
Cook until dark brown grill marks appear on the bottom and the surface is golden.
Flip using a black plastic spatula and cook the other side until likewise marked and cooked through.
Repeat the grilling process for the remaining flatbreads.
