Ingredients

For the Dough:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup milk (or water for a dairy-free option)
  • 1 egg (optional, for extra fluffiness)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

For the Garlic Butter:

  • 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried herbs (like parsley, oregano, or basil)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Liquid Dough:
    • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, egg (if using), baking powder, and salt until smooth and lump-free. The consistency should be like pancake batter.
  2. Prepare the Garlic Butter:
    • In a small pan, melt the butter or heat the olive oil over low heat.
    • Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the dried herbs and set aside.
  3. Cook the Flatbread:
    • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with a bit of butter or oil.
    • Pour a ladleful of the liquid dough into the pan, spreading it out evenly into a circle or oval shape.
    • Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
    • Flip the flatbread and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Add the Garlic Butter:
    • Brush the cooked flatbread generously with the prepared garlic butter while it’s still warm.
  5. Serve and Enjoy:
    • Serve immediately as a side to soups, salads, or curries, or enjoy on its own as a flavorful snack.

Tips for Success

  • Use a non-stick skillet for best results.
  • Adjust the batter consistency with a bit more milk or water if it feels too thick.
  • For extra flavor, sprinkle grated cheese on top while the flatbread is still hot.
