Man, this is the best thing I have discovered on youtube EVER. Thank you for making flatbread so easy. So this evening I made my flatbread dough, spread it, grated some cheese, grilled some bacon, then put the cheese and bacon on the uncooked flatbread, folded it over and crimped the edges (a bit like a pasty) and then cooked it in the pan, flipping in the same manner as I would a flatbread, a few minutes each side until pleasantly blistered and charred, I have a flatbread stuffed with bacon and cheese!.....man, this is delicious.

Thumbs up! Two days ago I tried to make it for the first and what I managed to make finally was very hard after baking. It was also a battle for me to prepare the bread by mixing the right amount of water. I have been watching my mom making it for two decades but I have never had a close look at the process. So, I searched for a video like this and found it. After watching this video I have just tried and the result is awesome, like a pro! I have understood that measurement is the key to succeed. I think it is a challenge to pour the exact amount of water and to mix that with flour.

[@keithc6370]

Just wanted to pop in, and say I made it (all-purpose flour, water and dash of salt only). I made two homemade pieces for my wife and myself. Gave it a shot as a "tortilla" for some tacos. It turned out pretty good; in fact, for the other tacos we ate, we used store-bought flour tortillas.....I actually felt like I was eating garbage with those, compared to the homemade bread. Wife would have liked them a little thinner; but they would go great with something like a chicken wrap, etc. Thanks chef!

[@ellenj9969]

YUM!!! I just made this and it was amazing. I did it all wrong, because I didn’t strictly follow the recipe (rolled it out too thick, too little water) BUT, it was awesome! I sprinkled the dough with sesame seeds and they toasted nicely in the pan. When the bread was done, I set it on a plate, smothered it with butter and cut it apart with a knife and ate it with a fork. Best bread I’ve eaten in decades. Oh, and I didn’t let the dough sit the required amount of time, either, and it was still good! Wow, addictive. And THANK YOU!

[@nos52]

In Mexico we call it "Tortilla de harina" also you can ad milk and butter instead of water and get a really, really good tortilla de harina.

[@hamza-trabelsi]

@@Fazman81 so i can make them without Corn flour , Thanks :D

[@Fazman81]

Hamza Trabelsi Yes it’s flour, baking powder, a little salt, oil and hot water or very warm water. Then you work the dough very well and let it sit for a few minutes. Most us Mexicans cook them on a cast iron comal or skillet. They are my favorite kind of tortilla and go really well with carne asada. Greetings from Texas.

[@mattgreyson6950]

That's also what roti is from the Indian subcontinent. But that is made traditionally using only whole wheat flour and not refined flour , and the cooking surface on which it is baked over stove tops is also quite similar to a cast iron skillet.

[@TheGrandSlayer]

This was awesome. I watched the video and ran to the kitchen hoping I had the ingredients, and I did! I made three and used some sautéed polish sausage and onions as a filler and it was great. I was missing a rolling pin so I used the counter and my hands, and I ended up using a lot more corn meal because I used all the flour, but it turned out fantastic! I really appreciate you sharing!

[@Liam892008]

Chickpea flour (gram/besan flour) arguably is better for this than regular flour, for what its worth!

[@slobomotion]

Chickpea (gram) flour is great and good for gluten-intolerant people. I find it needs to be moistened and then sit/ferment/bloom a bit, however. Socca is nice (Southern French), a kind of fragile pizza-type plain thing people bought on the street for a cheap breakfast. The Italian version in Livorno is called torto and is sublime. Etruscan in nature, it predated pizza made with wheat flour. It takes well to an oiled surface and does great with a little sea salt, pepper or mace, and crushed herbs such as rosemary, but is fully edible quite plain. There are some clips up about all these. If you try buckwheat flour (technically a fruit and good for gluten-free), it also does well blooming a bit. It doesn't take long and can also sit, lightly covered, for a spell. There are lots of Indian food clips up using "gram" flour. They are all too spicy for me in my old age, but I've adapted many for the sake of variety.

[@theBraxil]

Definitely not, when substituting flour types , if you don't know what you're doing you can't unbalance the glutenious equilibrium, ripping apart time space and killing us all!

[@fordhouse8b]

Would some of the Indian peopke here please go to the Wikipedia page for flatbread. I know Wikipedia can sometimes be unreliable, but not so unreliable that the dozens of flatbreads, from throughout the world, can be dismissed as some kind of plot to rob India of credit for inventing flatbread. Really, you believe that a basic agricultural product, cooked in a most basic way, was only thought of once throughout history? Furthermore, India is a conglomeration many cultures and languages, if flatbread had originated there, every Indian complaining, who is not from the exact state, region or village where chapati or roti was invented, should be ashamed of appropriating credit on behalf of the entire nation. And if they just happen to be from that exact hamlet, where some woman or man invented it, how does that credit belong to anyone else than the individual genius who first cooked it? I love chapati, roti, and naan, and Indians are without a doubt the single largest cultural or national group that eats flatbread as a staple, but for for god's sake, relax a bit. There are plenty of other cultures that have come up with this idea independently of India.

[@MaZEEZaM]

mformouse The ratio isn’t really needed as you just add enough water to the flour to create the dough.

[@dandavatsdasa8345]

I have seen a traditional Hindu method. They like to use highly refined whole wheat flour. Mix flour, water, and salt Roll out the dough balls with sprinkles of flour. Partially cook both sides in the skillet. Then place the patti on an open fire or coals with a metal clamp. The patti will normally explode into a ball. Toast both sides golden brown. Smear with some butter if desired. Great for scooping up cooked vegetables along with rice & beans I think that corn meal in the flour can contribute to sticking when cooked.

I just made the simplest version of this, using only water, flour and salt, and ate it with just some butter. It's incredible how something so simple can taste so delicious.

Flatbread - Roti. Roti - Flatbread. Shuddup, you folks.... Get ya bread made and eat ! A bread by any name tastes the same.

How well would coconut flour or almond flour work? Also I assume adding seasoning and/or herbs would be ok? (I've never made bread) Thanks!

Watched your video and made it right away... great recipe and way easier than I could have imagined. Thanks.

[@trishoconnor2169]

Seems like it would be good with anything you'd eat with tortillas.

Made some flat bread today after watching this and it was lovely, thanks for posting

If you don't have a rolling pin then you can also use a cup for free

[@staceyme1480]

Or a longdrink glass

Or a wine bottle

Or anything cylindrical shaped, like a... P-pen- pin!

I've made this recipe with half wheat flour half bread crumbs - I used the leftovers from breading. It works just as fine, only with a slightly coarse texture.

"Oh yeah this recipe predates the invention of the stainless steel mixing bowl". LOL, this guy cracks me up, lol.

[@elvirak.schuller9449]

I tried making it right away after watching your video and it turned out great! I love it :D

[@themrbear85]

You should do a stand up routine!

I just did this and it was amazing. What makes the difference between making it wait or not?
