No-Knead Green Onion Flatbread

    1. Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and instant yeast. Gradually add the lukewarm water and 1 tbsp of cooking oil, mixing until a sticky dough forms. Cover the bowl and let it ferment for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
    2. Prepare the Dough: After the dough has risen, gently fold and deflate it several times. Then, roll it out on a floured surface into a large square piece, about 35 x 35 cm.
  1. Season the Dough: Sprinkle the chopped green onions and a pinch of salt evenly over the dough. Roll up the dough tightly into a log, then coil it into a round shape and flatten it gently with your hands.
  2. Cook the Flatbread: Heat a non-stick skillet over low heat and add a bit of cooking oil. Place the flattened dough into the skillet and cook for about 6 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Press the bread with a spatula; if it springs back immediately, it’s done. Alternatively, you can bake the bread at 170°C (340°F) for 20 minutes.
