Flatbread Ingredients:

  • All-purpose flour: 2 cups
  • Baking powder: 1 teaspoon
  • Salt: ½ teaspoon
  • Yogurt or sour cream: ¾ cup
  • Olive oil: 2 tablespoons
  • Warm water: 2–4 tablespoons (if needed)

Garlic Sour Cream Sauce Ingredients:

  • Sour cream: ½ cup
  • Garlic: 2 cloves (minced or finely grated)
  • Lemon juice: 1 teaspoon
  • Olive oil: 1 teaspoon
  • Salt: To taste
  • Black pepper: To taste
  • Fresh parsley or dill: 1 teaspoon (optional, finely chopped)

Instructions:

Flatbread:

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients:
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients:
    Add the yogurt (or sour cream) and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix with a spoon or your hands until the dough comes together. Add warm water, a tablespoon at a time, if the dough feels too dry.
  3. Knead the Dough:
    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 2–3 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a clean towel and let rest for 10–15 minutes.
  4. Divide and Roll:
    Divide the dough into 6–8 equal portions. Roll each piece into a thin circle or oval shape.
  5. Cook the Flatbread:
    Heat a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Place one rolled-out dough piece into the pan and cook for 1–2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown spots appear. Repeat for all pieces.

Garlic Sour Cream Sauce:

  1. Combine Ingredients:
    In a small bowl, mix the sour cream, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add fresh herbs if desired.
  2. Taste and Adjust:
    Adjust the seasoning with more lemon juice, salt, or garlic to taste.

Assembly:

  1. Serve the warm flatbread with the garlic sour cream sauce on the side or drizzle it directly over the bread.
  2. Add toppings like fresh herbs, sautéed vegetables, or crumbled cheese for extra flavor.

Enjoy your delicious, homemade flatbread with a creamy garlic dip!
