ngredients (Makes about 8 flatbreads)

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup fine semolina (optional but recommended)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
• 1 teaspoon dry yeast (optional for softer texture)
• 1 cup warm water (adjust as needed)
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil (for shaping)
• 1/4 cup melted butter (for layering)
• Extra flour for dusting

Instructions

1. Prepare the Dough
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, semolina, salt, sugar, and yeast (if using).
   • Gradually add warm water while kneading until you get a smooth, elastic dough.
   • Knead for about 10 minutes, then cover with a cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
2. Divide and Shape
   • Divide the dough into equal-sized balls (about the size of a golf ball).
   • Coat each ball lightly with oil to prevent sticking.
3. Flatten and Fold
   • Take one ball and flatten it with your hands or a rolling pin on a greased surface.
   • Brush the surface with melted butter and a little oil.
   • Fold it into a square (or circle, if making paratha) by folding the edges inward.
4. Cook the Flatbreads
   • Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat.
   • Place one flattened dough piece and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, flipping until golden brown.
   • Press gently with a spatula to help it puff up and develop layers.
5. Serve Warm
   • Serve with honey, cheese, or your favorite dipping sauce.
