With just flour and boiling water, you can create a simple, delicious, and versatile dough that’s perfect for flatbreads, dumplings, or quick snacks. This easy recipe requires no yeast, no oven, and is ready in minutes. Here’s how to make it!


Ingredients (Serves 2-4)

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour for a healthier option)
  • 3/4 cup boiling water
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon oil or butter (optional, for extra softness and flavor)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Dough

  • Place the flour and salt in a mixing bowl.
  • Gradually pour the boiling water into the flour while stirring with a spoon or chopsticks.

2. Mix and Knead

  • Once the mixture cools slightly and becomes less sticky, knead the dough by hand for 5–7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Add a little more flour if it’s too sticky or a splash of water if it’s too dry.
  • Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 10 minutes.

3. Shape the Dough

  • Divide the dough into smaller portions and shape it based on your desired dish:
    • Flatbreads: Roll into thin rounds for frying.
    • Dumplings: Flatten and fill with your choice of stuffing.
    • Noodles: Roll out and slice into thin strips.

4. Cook the Dough

  • Flatbreads: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook each piece for 2–3 minutes on each side until lightly browned.
  • Dumplings: Boil in salted water until they float, or steam for 10–12 minutes.
  • Noodles: Boil in water for 2–3 minutes until soft.

5. Serve and Enjoy

  • Serve plain or pair with sauces, dips, or toppings like honey, butter, or sautĂ©ed vegetables.
