- large onion, finely chopped or grated
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour (gluten-free if necessary)
- 1 cup of water
- Optional: A pinch of salt for taste
- Olive oil or butter for cooking
Instructions:
- Prepare the Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour with a pinch of salt (if using). Add the chopped or grated onion and mix well.
- Gradually add the water to the flour and onion mixture, stirring until a dough begins to form. You might need slightly more or less water, so add it gradually until the dough is firm but pliable.
- Knead the Dough:
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently for a few minutes. The dough should be soft but not sticky. Add a little more flour if it feels too wet.
- Divide and Shape:
- Divide the dough into small balls, about the size of a golf ball. Using a rolling pin, roll each ball into a thin circle or oval shape.
- Cook the Flatbread:
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with olive oil or butter.
- Place one flatbread in the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and slightly puffy. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- Serve Warm:
- Serve your onion flatbreads warm from the skillet. They are perfect with dips, soups, or as a wrap for sandwiches.
Benefits of Making Your Own Bread:
Making your own bread can be a rewarding experience. It allows you to control the ingredients, avoiding preservatives and additives found in many store-bought breads. Plus, the aroma of freshly cooked bread can make any meal feel special.
