Preparation Time

  • Prep Time: 20 minutes
  • Cook Time: 15 minutes
  • Rest Time: 1 hour
  • Total Time: 1 hour 35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 300 ml warm water (1 1/2 cups)
  • 1 tsp salt (7 grams)
  • 1 egg
  • 550 g flour (4 1/5 cups)
  • 40 g green onions, chopped
  • 50 g spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper
  • 100 g butter, melted

Instructions

Prepare the Dough

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together warm water, 1 tsp salt, and the egg until combined.
  2. Add Flour: Gradually mix in the flour, stirring continuously, until a soft dough forms. Adjust with more flour if too sticky.
  3. Knead: Transfer to a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  4. Incorporate Vegetables: Flatten the dough slightly. Sprinkle chopped green onions, spinach, 1/2 tsp salt, and red pepper over the top. Knead until the vegetables are evenly distributed.
  5. Rest: Place the dough back into the bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let it rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Shape & Cook

  1. Divide Dough: Turn the risen dough onto a floured surface and divide into 8 equal portions.
  2. Shape Flatbreads: Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten into 1/4-inch-thick discs.
  3. Cook: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Brush both sides of each flatbread with melted butter. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and cooked through, brushing with more butter if needed.
