Easiest Flatbreads Ever
PREP TIME: 5mins
COOKING TIME: 30mins
Super quick(ish) and so delicious and chewy and they are vegan too!
Ingredients:
- 250g white bread flour (plus extra for dusting)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried yeast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 150ml hand hot water
Method:
- Put the flour into a large bowl and add the salt & yeast.
- Add the oil and the water and stir with the back of a wooden spoon or your hands to form a rough dough. The dough will feel slightly sticky.
- Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for about 5 min or until the dough feels smooth and plump.
- Place the dough in a clean bowl and wrap tightly with plastic (use a eco one here). Leave your dough to rise slightly.
- Knock back the dough and divide into 8 pieces. Shape each ball into a ball. Flour the work surface and your rolling pin, roll each ball into a round(ish) about the width of a hardback cookbook cover (3mm)
- Use plenty of flour as the dough is quite sticky.
- Set a large frying pan over high heat. When its very hot, shake off any excess flour and carefully lay it in the hot pan. Let it sit for 1-2minutes, until the dough starts to bubble and puff in places.
- Look at the underside, if you can see dark patches forming, flip the flatbread over and cook on the other side. Wrap each flatbread in a cloth while you cook the rest.
- Trickle with olive oil or garlic butter and serve.
