Ingredients
- 500 g All-purpose flour
- 10 g Salt
- 5 g Sugar
- 7 g Instant yeast
- 60 ml Olive oil
- 300 ml Warm water
- 50 g Coconut oil (solid)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, sugar, and instant yeast. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Step 2
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the olive oil and about 250 ml of the warm water. Mix gradually with your hand or a spatula, adding the remaining water as needed, until a rough dough forms.
Step 3
Knead the dough for 10 minutes on a lightly floured surface until it becomes smooth and elastic. You may need to add a little flour if the dough is too sticky.
Step 4
Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Step 5
Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then cover with a damp cloth and let rest for another 15 minutes.
Step 6
On a floured surface, take one dough ball and roll it out into a thin circle, approximately 20 cm in diameter.
Step 7
Lightly spread some solid coconut oil over the surface of the rolled-out dough.
Step 8
Roll the dough circle into a cylinder, then coil it into a spiral resembling a snail shell. Press down gently to flatten slightly, then roll out again into a 15 cm circle. Repeat for all dough pieces.
Step 9
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each flatbread for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Press down with a spatula to ensure even cooking.
Step 10
Remove the finished flatbread from the skillet and keep it warm in a clean kitchen towel while you cook the remaining flatbreads.
Step 11
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or alongside your meal.
