Perfect for accompanying a range of dishes or enjoying on their own, these flatbreads are packed with flavor thanks to the garlic and coriander. Here’s how you can make them at home.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups (250g) strong white bread flour, plus extra for kneading
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon fast-acting instant yeast
- 1 tablespoon softened butter
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 150 ml cool water
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 teaspoons garlic puree
- 2-3 teaspoons chopped coriander (cilantro)
- Olive oil for frying
Directions:
1. Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and yeast. Incorporate the softened butter and Greek yogurt, then gradually add the water until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
2. Knead the Dough
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
3. Let the Dough Rise
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let it rise until it has doubled in size, about 2 hours.
4. Shape the Flatbreads
Punch down the dough and divide it into six equal parts. Roll each piece into a 4.5-5 inch diameter circle.
5. Rest the Dough
Let the circles relax on a lined baking tray for 30-45 minutes.
6. Prepare the Garlic-Coriander Butter
Combine the melted butter, garlic puree, and chopped coriander in a bowl.
