Ingredients
Directions
Step 1

In large bowl place yogurt, salt and add 1/2 cup of flour. Mix well with a spoon and then add another 1/2 cup of flour and mix again. At this point, add the remaining flour as needed to get the dough to start coming together and should start to resemble dough. It will be a little sticky, so don't put too much flour in. I have found that for regular (not Greek) plain yogurt (not fat free), I need the full 2 cups of flour. But, if you are using a different yogurt or flour, you may need more or less. If it's too dry, just add a little more yogurt.

Step 2

Now, using your hands, mix in the last 1/2 cup of flour. Once it stops feeling sticky, knead the dough for about 2 -3 minutes. It should now resemble a ball of dough and should not be very sticky to the touch.

Step 3

Place some more flour onto a flat board for rolling out the dough. I do not use a rolling pin, I just grab a section of the dough and place it onto the floured surface. Flatten it down a bit, flip and then using my hands, I just flatten it out as much as I can, leaving it about 1/4 inch thick. It will not be even using this method, but it works great and no one will care if your bread isn't perfectly round.

Step 4

In a large skillet (preferably cast iron), add 1 - 2 tablespoons of oil (if desired) and heat on high. I prefer using garlic olive oil to add more flavor, but that's not necessary as regular vegetable oil will work well too. You can do this without oil as long as your pan is either nonstick or is well seasoned.

Step 5

Once the skillet is hot, carefully (be very careful or the oil will splatter back onto you) place one of the dough flats onto the pan. Cook on high heat paying attention to make sure that you don't burn it by occasionally looking at the bread to see if it is browned.

Step 6

Once it is browned, flip and do the same on this side. Once both sides are browned I usually flip a couple more times to be sure it is the color I like.

Step 7

Remove from the pan and place on a paper towel.

Step 8

Repeat the above steps, adding oil when needed. Also, if you are making a large batch of these, you may need to wipe the pan with a paper towel every so often to get the brown floured bits off otherwise you might wind up with dirty flat bread.

Step 9

Serve with hummus, or I like to add some ham and cheese and turn it into a delicious warm sandwich.

I was in an Indian food kick several years back and was making Samosas (ooh, I’ll have to make those soon).  Anyways, I had extra dough and tried just using it as flat bread.  It worked, so then I adjusted it a little to make it easy and quick. It is great when you have a small crowd and need something fun and different.  Your friends will be amazed at how easy it is to make.
