Quick and Flavorful Garlic Flatbreads

Ingredients

For the Flatbreads:

• 350g flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• A pinch of salt
• 60ml oil
• 120ml water

For the Garlic Oil Brushing:

• Pressed garlic (adjust to taste)
• A little oil
• Fresh herbs to taste (such as parsley, cilantro, or rosemary)

Preparation

1. Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Add the oil and water, and mix until a smooth dough forms. Knead the dough until it is soft and pliable. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. If it’s too dry, incorporate a bit more water.
2. Shape the Flatbreads: Divide the dough into small portions and roll each into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each ball into flatbreads about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick, depending on your preference.
3. Cook the Flatbreads: Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, place a flatbread in the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly puffed. Repeat with the remaining dough.
4. Prepare the Garlic Oil: In a small bowl, combine a little oil with pressed garlic and your chosen herbs. This will be your garlic-herb brushing mixture.
5. Brush and Serve: While the flatbreads are still warm, brush the garlic oil mixture over the top of each flatbread. This will infuse them with a rich, garlicky herb flavor.
