Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)

How to Make Spiral Flatbread with Yogurt Sauce

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution.
  2. Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough begins to form.
  3. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rest for 15 minutes.
  4. Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  5. Divide the dough into four equal portions. Roll each portion into a thin circle (about 8 inches in diameter).
  6. Take one rolled-out circle, brush it lightly with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Starting from one edge, roll the dough up into a log. Then, twist the log into a spiral shape and tuck the end underneath. Repeat with the remaining portions.
  7. Flatten each spiral gently with your palm, then roll it out again to about 1/2 inch thickness.
  8. Cook each flatbread in the preheated skillet for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  9. While the flatbreads are cooking, prepare the yogurt sauce. In a bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  10. Serve the warm spiral flatbreads with the creamy yogurt sauce on the side for dipping.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Ensure your water is warm but not hot; this helps activate the yeast without killing it.
  • Let the dough rest to ensure a softer texture.
  • If you like, sprinkle herbs like rosemary or thyme into the dough for added flavor.
  • Adjust the cooking time based on your skillet’s heat to avoid burning.

Easy Variations

  • Herbed Flatbread: Add chopped fresh herbs into the dough for an aromatic twist.
  • Cheesy Flatbread: Mix in shredded cheese before rolling up the dough for a cheesy interior.
  • Spiced Yogurt Sauce: Add a pinch of cumin or paprika to the yogurt sauce for extra depth.

What to Serve With It

  • Grilled vegetables or meats for a hearty meal.
  • A fresh salad for a lighter option.
  • Hummus or baba ganoush for a delightful dip.
  • Soups to soak up the flavors.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftover flatbreads in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm them in a skillet for a minute on each side or in the oven at 350°F until heated through.
