2. Add the wet ingredients

1. Pour in warm water and oil.

If the dough feels:

• Too sticky: add 1–2 tablespoons flour.

• Too dry: add 1–2 tablespoons water.

3. Knead briefly

1. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface.

2. Knead for 1–2 minutes until smooth.

Since there is no yeast, long kneading is not required.

4. Shape the bread

You have two easy options:

Option A — Flat Skillet Bread (Fastest)

1. Divide dough into 4–6 pieces.

2. Roll each piece into a flat circle (½ cm thick).

Option B — Small Quick Loaf

1. Shape dough into a small oval loaf.

2. Place it on a lined baking tray.

Cooking Methods

Method 1 — Stovetop (Fastest)

1. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat.

2. Place rolled dough in the pan.

3. Cook 3–4 minutes per side.

4. Cover with a lid to help it cook inside.

Bread should turn golden brown with light spots.

Method 2 — Oven

1. Preheat oven to 200°C (390°F).

2. Bake loaf for 15–20 minutes.

3. Bread should become lightly golden on top.

How to Check if Bread is Done

• Tap the bottom — it should sound slightly hollow.

• Texture should be soft but cooked inside.
