Main ingredient: flour

Servings:12quantities adjust to match

Ingredients

  • 17¾ oz all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 cup milk, warmed, plus more as needed
  • Oil, for the pan

Method

  1. Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
  2. Pour in the warm milk and mix to a shaggy dough, then knead on a lightly floured surface for 5 to 7 minutes until smooth and soft, adding a splash more milk if dry.
  3. Cover and rest the dough for 20 to 30 minutes.
  4. Divide into 8 equal pieces and roll each into a ball. Roll each ball out into a round about (7 inches) across and ¼ in thick.
  5. Heat a dry heavy skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly oil it. Cook each flatbread for 2 to 3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until puffed in spots and golden brown with darker speckles.
  6. Wrap the cooked flatbreads in a clean cloth to keep them soft and serve warm.
