Ingredients

  • 220 grams Greek yogurt (see note 1)
  • 140 grams self-rising flour (see note 2)
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Combine the flour and yogurt in a large bowl.
  • Mix the flour and yogurt. Pay attention here: If the dough is too dry, add a tablespoon of yogurt. Alternatively, add a tablespoon of flour if the dough seems too wet. The consistency should feel smooth without being sticky.
  • Shape into a ball and allow the dough to rest for half an hour.
  • Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface and divide it into 4 pieces.
  • Roll the dough into a thin circle using a rolling pin.
  • Heat a cast-iron skillet at a high temperature and a little olive oil. Cook the greek yogurt flatbread for a few minutes on each side. The flatbread will puff up and char in certain parts (that’s OK! - it adds flavour!). Repeat with the remaining dough pieces until all the flatbreads are cooked.

Notes

  1. Substitute the Greek yogurt with regular plain yogurt if you prefer.  Do Not use flavoured yogurt.  Sour cream is another good alternative to Greek yogurt.
  2. Substitute with all-purpose flour.  (For every cup, add 2 teaspoons of baking powder). 
  3. Make sure your cast iron skillet is hot before cooking the homemade flatbread.
  4. Don’t overmix the dough.  Instead, just combine everything until all the ingredients come together.
  5. Roll the dough to a thin consistency.  This will allow the flatbread to cook quicker and produce a light and puffy texture.
  6. Add a tablespoon of olive oil to the dough.  This will help with making it smooth and easier to handle.  (adjust flour amounts if the dough is too sticky)
  7. Always have extra flour nearby to adjust the quantities for the dough and to flour the kneading surface.
