I love a good BBQ and nothing beats some freshly made flatbread with it.
They are super versatile and absolutely easy to make.
And the best part is, that they are done in an instant. Like literally done in 5 minutes. And the ingredients are basic, which most of us have at home all the time.
So what do you actually need for those?
All you need is:
All-purpose flour, salt, sugar, water, baking powder and some olive oil.
Yep, you read that correctly, no yeast is needed for them as the baking soda will make them rise and get fluffy. And you also don’t lose time while the dough has to proof.
So that’s it! This is all you need! Well, and a pan and some oil if you make them on a stove.
Oh, and those tasty flatbreads are vegan as well. As long as you do not brush some tasty garlic butter on top of it…
They do taste so good with a lot of things- I am thinking butter chicken curry, some hummus, lemon chicken or just with a simple salad!
My personal favourite however is with a chicken shawarma from the grill- I fell like whisked away immediately.
And they are super easy to prepare.
You just need to divide the dough in little balls, roll them, flatten them with your rolling pin and then “bake” them in your pan or grill. They will need roughly around 2-3 minutes on each side, depending on how thick you rolled them out. And the heat will give them those beautiful bubbles.
But you can also spice them up!
How?
My favourite variations of the flatbread:
Garlic butter– simply brush a bit of garlic butter over your flatbread
Fresh coriander– simply add some coriander, with some olive oil on top
Chili Oil: if you like it spicy, simply add some chilli oil
If you prefer them plain, or with a bit of zing, either way they are absolutely delicious.
