10-Minute Flatbread Recipe (No Oven Required)
Description: This quick and easy flatbread recipe requires no oven and can be made in just 10 minutes. With minimal ingredients—flour, yogurt, and water—this bread is perfect for any meal. The result is soft, chewy, and delicious, making it ideal for pairing with curries, stews, dips, or even enjoying on its own.
Ingredients:
4 cups (480g) of flour (all-purpose or whole wheat)
1 cup (220g) of yogurt (unsweetened, can use plant-based yogurt for a vegan version)
1 cup (200ml) of water
A pinch of salt (optional)
1 tablespoon of oil (optional, for extra softness)
Instructions:
Prepare the Dough:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yogurt, and water.
Mix well to form a dough. Add a pinch of salt and oil if desired, and knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. You may add a bit more flour if the dough is too sticky.
Shape the Dough:
Divide the dough into 6-8 equal balls, depending on the size of the bread you prefer.
Roll each ball into a flat round shape using a rolling pin.
Cook the Flatbread:
Heat a non-stick pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the rolled dough into the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown spots appear. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking.
Serve:
Once the bread is cooked, remove it from the pan. Let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy it warm with dips, curries, or your favorite dishes.

Tips:
Use Whole Wheat Flour: For a healthier version, substitute regular flour with whole wheat flour. It will increase the fiber content and make it a more nutritious choice.
Add Garlic or Herbs: For extra flavor, consider adding garlic powder, fresh herbs (like rosemary or thyme), or even a pinch of paprika to the dough.
Storage: Store any leftover flatbread in an airtight container. It can stay at room temperature for 2-3 days. For longer storage, freeze the bread and reheat it when needed.
Consistency of Dough: If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour; if it’s too dry, add a bit more water or yogurt to achieve a smooth consistency.
Use a Cast Iron Skillet: For even better results, use a cast iron skillet for cooking, as it retains heat well and cooks the bread evenly.
