How to make Yoghurt Flatbreads. The dough comes together in minutes using self-raising flour and yoghurt, and the flatbreads cook quickly in a hot pan for a golden, blistered finish.
Ingredients
- 1
350 g (2¼ cups) self-raising flour, plus extra for kneading and rolling
- 2
1 tsp baking powder
- 3
2 tsp sumac, plus extra to serve (optional)
- 4
1 tsp salt flakes, plus extra to serve
- 5
300 g (1 cup) Greek yoghurt
- 6
¼ cup (60 ml) olive oil, for frying
Method
- 1
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sumac (if using) and salt. Make a well in the centre and add the yoghurt. Mix until just combined.
- 2
Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 2 minutes until smooth, adding more flour if needed. Let rest for 15 minutes under a clean towel.
- 3
Divide dough into 10–12 pieces. Roll each into a rough circle, about ½ cm thick.
- 4
Heat a large pan over medium heat and drizzle in olive oil. Fry each flatbread for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and puffed.
- 5
Sprinkle with extra salt flakes and sumac (if using). Keep warm under a towel and serve immediately.
Tips
- 1
A splash of oil ensures crispy edges—add a little each time.
- 2
Wipe out the pan with paper towel, between batches to prevent burnt flour.
- 3
Try brushing with garlic butter or adding curry leaves, za’atar, or sesame seeds for variation.
