Ingredients

Makes 4 

175g Greek Yogurt *

1/2 tsp salt 

210g Plain flour 

1/2 tsp baking powder 

*if you use a more watery yogurt it may be more sticky so just work some more flour into the dough from your surface while kneading, if you’re using a thick strained style yogurt you may need a tsp more of yogurt

Instrustions

In a mixing bowl mix the salt into the yogurt and then add the flour and baking powder. Mix until shaggy and combined. Place on a floured surface and knead for 1-3 minutes. Just to bring the dough together. Put the dough in a bowl and cover with a tea towel for 15-30 minutes.

Roll slightly into a log shape and divide into 4. Shape into a rough ball and then roll each one out (starting with the one you shaped first) as thin as you can, flour the top and bottom of the dough ball before rolling and add more flour as rolling if it becomes sticky. 

Heat your pan to a high heat, so the water test by throwing some water on the pan and the water should turn into clumps and go to the edge. Dry the water off and add your flatbread, press down all around it and count to 20, flip and press again, turning every 20-30 seconds. It will cook in 3-4 minutes. I keep mine in a tea towel while they’re warm to keep them soft.

Enjoy
