These soft flatbreads have become my go to weeknight staple, and I think you'll love how incredibly simple they are to make. With just self raising flour, yogurt, and a few basic pantry staples, you can have warm, pillowy bread on the table in under 30 minutes. The yogurt not only keeps them wonderfully soft and tender, but it also adds a gentle tang and beneficial probiotics to aid digestion. What I adore most is how forgiving this recipe is, perfect for busy evenings when you need something delicious without any fuss. Serve them warm with curry, use them for wraps, or enjoy them plain with a drizzle of melted ghee.

Instructions
- 1
Combine the flour, baking powder, yogurt and oil with 1 tsp salt and 2 tbsp water, and bring together into a rough dough. Tip onto a lightly floured surface and knead for a few minutes until slightly smooth, then divide into four to eight pieces, depending on the size of flatbread you want.

Heat a heavy-based frying pan over a high heat. To make basic flatbreads, roll the dough pieces out on a lightly floured surface into rough ovals, then fry for 1-2 mins on each side until golden and slightly charred in spots. Alternatively, roll the dough pieces out, brush with a little melted ghee or butter, and scatter over the cumin seeds, garlic, coriander or chillies, if you like. Fold each piece of dough over on itself, then roll out again into a rough oval and cook in the same way.
