Ingredients

4 cups of all-purpose flour (480 g)
1 cup plain yogurt (220 g)
3/4 cup water (200 ml)

Optional additions for flavor:

1 tsp salt (for a slightly savory taste)
1 tsp sugar (to balance the tanginess of yogurt)
2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter (for extra softness)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and yogurt.
Gradually add water while stirring with a spoon or your hands. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
Knead for about 2–3 minutes until smooth. If it’s too dry, add a tiny bit more water.

Step 2: Shape the Bread

Divide the dough into 4–6 equal portions.
Roll or pat each portion into a flat, round shape, about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 3: Cook on Stovetop

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat.
Place the dough in the pan. Cover with a lid and cook for 3–4 minutes on one side.
Flip the bread and cook the other side for another 3–4 minutes.
The bread should puff slightly and develop golden brown spots.

Step 4: Serve

Serve warm with butter, jam, cheese, or your favorite spread.
Store leftovers in an airtight container; reheat in a pan for freshness.

Methods

Hand-Kneading Method: Gives a chewy texture and allows you to feel the dough consistency.
Rolling Method: Ensures uniform thickness for even cooking.
Pan-Cooking Method: No oven required, faster and energy-efficient.

History

Flatbreads and quick breads have been staples in kitchens around the world for centuries. Yogurt-based breads are popular in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, prized for their soft texture and slight tang. This modern, fast version allows anyone to enjoy the taste of traditional bread without long fermentation or baking times.

Formation
