Instructions
Prepare the Dough
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together warm water, 1 tsp salt, and the egg until combined.
- Add Flour: Gradually mix in the flour, stirring continuously, until a soft dough forms. Adjust with more flour if too sticky.
- Knead: Transfer to a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
- 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.
- 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 Flatbreads: Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten into 1/4-inch-thick discs.
