Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • Bread Flour or All-Purpose Flour: 500g 4 cups
  • Warm Milk: 160ml 2/3 cup
  • Warm Water: 160ml 2/3 cup
  • Instant Dry Yeast: 10g 1.5 tbsp
  • Sugar: 10g 1 tbsp
  • Salt: 8g 0.8 tbsp
  • Olive Oil: 18g 3 tbsp

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk, warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir well and let it sit for about 10 minutes until frothy.
  2. Add the flour, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Let the Dough Rise: Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until it doubles in size.
  5. Shape the Dough: Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces.
  6. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten it into a disc about 18cm in diameter.
  7. Cook the Flatbread: Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and lightly coat it with cooking oil.
  8. Place a dough disc in the pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and puffed up.
  9. Repeat with the remaining dough pieces.
  10. Optional Topping: Brush the cooked flatbreads with melted unsalted butter or olive oil.
  11. Sprinkle with crushed pepper and chopped parsley for added flavor.
