Ingredients

Scale

Flatbread Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Cottage cheese
  • 1 Cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 Tsp Baking powder
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 2 Tbsps Olive oil (for cooking)

Instructions

  1. Start the Dough: Add cottage cheese, flour, an egg, baking powder, and salt to a mixing bowl to begin combining the ingredients.
  2. Bring It Together Gently: Mix the ingredients gently until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. It doesn’t need to be perfect, just workable.
  3. Let the Dough Relax: Cover the bowl and let the dough rest for 5–10 minutes; this softens it and makes it easier to shape.
  4. Divide Into Portions: Cut the rested dough into small, palm-sized pieces to ensure even cooking of each flatbread.
  5. Shape Each Piece: Flatten each dough portion into a rough circle shape, focusing more on practicality than uniformity.
  6. Heat the Skillet: Warm a skillet over medium heat and brush or drizzle some olive oil to prepare for cooking the flatbreads.
  7. Cook Each Flatbread: Lay one dough piece at a time onto the hot skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until browned, slightly puffed, and emitting a toasty aroma.
  8. Stack and Soften: Once cooked, stack the flatbreads under a towel to trap steam, keeping them warm and soft.
  9. Ready to Serve: Serve warm alongside curries, soups, or as a quick snack with cheese or hummus for a satisfying treat.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cottage cheese for the softest, richest flatbreads.
  • If the dough is too sticky to handle, sprinkle a little extra flour while shaping.
  • Adjust salt to taste based on your preference or dietary needs.
  • These flatbreads are best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated in a skillet or microwave.
  • For a gluten-free version, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend, adjusting moisture as needed.
