    Do you belong to bread camp or rice camp?

    Do you, like me, love carbs? Honestly, I cannot imagine a day of my life without either rice or wheat! Although I am self proclaimed rice addict, there are many occasions when I crave a hot, soft flatbread or paratha - especially when I make some delicious dal or curry. This easy, no yeast flatbread, of all of them, has my heart - a close second being this gluten free roti. On days when we feel like having a Mediterranean meal, I serve this flatbread with some hummus, vegetable salad and some extra virgin olive oil. On days when I am more of a fusion mood, I serve these with some creamy beetroot raitha (yogurt dip) and chargrilled aubergine mash (Baingan Bhartha)

    I am 50% rice camp and 50% wheat camp. What about you? Do let me know in the comments. 

    Toppings that will works well for this No Yeast Flatbread

    Some time back, I ran a poll in my Instagram stories and asked my IG family what toppings they would suggest for this flatbread, I got so many amazing suggestions! Here are some of the suggestions for topping:

    • Garlic and Green chillies
    • Sesame seeds
    • Crushed Cumin and Coriander seeds
    Which of the above combinations are you most likely to try? Or do you have something completely different idea in mind? Do let me know in the comments below. Would love to try them too! 

    Recipe inspiration

    This recipe is inspired from the Mediterranean. I first saw this recipe in a food magazine and knew instantly that I could develop it into something that we will all love! After many trials and taste testing, here is the fail proof version!

    Recipe Ingredients for the Vegan Spicy Flatbread

    Just 4 ingredients and water (of course!) to bind them all together - that's it! - Flour (I use whole wheat), salt, oil (Extra Virgin Olive Oil or any other oil of your choice) and baking powder.

    Recipe Ingredients for Vegan Flatbread

    How to make this delicious Vegan Flatbread

    1. In an bowl, add 1 cup (250grams) of whole wheat flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.
    whole wheat flour with oil

    2. Now add in 150 ml of hot water. It is important to use hot water to get the softest flatbread. Please do not omit this step.

    3. Mix the dough initially with a ladle (because of the hot water) and when it is cool enough to handle, mix it in with your hand till the dough comes together. Knead it for a minute. Cover and let it rest for 10 minutes.

    4. While the dough is resting, do these two things:

    • in a bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon (5 grams) of oregano and 1 teaspoon (5 grams) of red chilli flakes. Keep aside.
    • Set a frying pan/griddle (preferably cast iron) to heat on medium heat.

    5. Once the dough has rested for 10 minutes, knead it well for two minutes to get a dough that is soft and pliable.

    6. Pinch the dough to make 8 equal portions. Roll each portion between the palms of your hand to make a smooth looking ball.

    7. Using some flour for dusting, roll out each dough ball into a round shape. Sprinkle some of the oregano - chilli flakes mixture and roll some more so that the oregano and chilli flakes get "embedded" into the dough.

    8. By this time the frying pan/griddle that you have put for heating should have heated up evenly. Turn the heat up to medium - high. Place the rolled out flatbread - herbs and spices side up.

    When you see the flatbread puffing up, gently flip it. Drizzle some oil (about 1 teaspoon). Let this side cook and puff up too. Each side will take about 1 minute to cook and turn golden brown.
