👨🍳 Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
1️⃣ In a large bowl, mix flour and salt.
2️⃣ Gradually add warm water, stirring with a spoon until the dough starts to form.
3️⃣ Knead for 5-7 minutes until the dough is soft and elastic. Cover and let it rest for 20 minutes.
Step 2: Prepare the Spinach Filling (Optional)
4️⃣ While the dough rests, chop the spinach and mix with garlic, salt, and black pepper in a bowl.
Step 3: Shape the Flatbreads
5️⃣ Divide the dough into 6-8 equal balls. Roll each ball into a thin round disc on a floured surface.
6️⃣ Brush each disc with melted butter and oil mixture for extra flakiness.
7️⃣ If using the spinach filling, spread a thin layer over half the disc, then fold it in half and seal the edges.
Step 4: Cook the Flatbreads
8️⃣ Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat.
9️⃣ Cook each flatbread for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and slightly crispy.
🔟 Brush with extra butter or oil for extra softness.
