Here’s a simple and delicious Liquid Dough Garlic Flatbread recipe — soft, pan-cooked, and infused with garlicky goodness. This version uses a pourable batter (like pancake consistency) instead of kneaded dough, making it fast and beginner-friendly. Perfect as a side for curries, soups, or dips!
Liquid Dough Garlic Flatbread
Ingredients:
-
1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend)
-
1 cup water (adjust for pourable consistency)
-
½ tsp baking powder
-
½ tsp salt
-
2 tbsp plain yogurt (for softness, optional)
-
1–2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander or parsley (optional)
-
2–3 garlic cloves, minced
-
1–2 tbsp olive oil or butter (for pan + brushing)
-
Optional: pinch of sugar (balances flavor)
Instructions:
-
Make the Batter:
-
In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
Add yogurt (if using), water gradually, and whisk to a smooth, pourable batter (like pancake batter).
-
Stir in the minced garlic and chopped herbs.
-
-
Cook the Flatbread:
-
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with oil or butter.
-
Pour about ¼ to ⅓ cup of batter onto the pan. Tilt or spread gently with a spoon to make a round shape (6–7 inches).
-
Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form and edges begin to set. Flip and cook another 2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
-
-
Finish and Serve:
-
Brush the hot flatbread with melted butter or oil. Sprinkle extra garlic or herbs if desired.
-
Serve warm with curries, stews, or use as a wrap.
-
Tips:
-
You can add shredded cheese or chili flakes into the batter for variety.
-
For a crispier edge, cook with a little extra oil.
-
Can be made gluten-free with a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend.
