Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup plain yogurt
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup fresh parsley
  • 1 whole green chili
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix 2 cups flour, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 cup yogurt, and 1/2 cup water until a shaggy dough forms. Knead for 5 minutes until smooth, then cover and rest for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    While the dough rests, make the chutney: blend 1 cup parsley, 1 green chili, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and 2 tbsp olive oil with a pinch of salt until smooth. Add water if needed to reach a spoonable consistency.

  3. 3

    Divide the dough into 6 equal balls. On a floured surface, roll each ball into a 6-inch round, about 1/4 inch thick.

  4. 4

    Heat a dry skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each flatbread for 1-2 minutes per side, until puffed and golden spots appear. Keep cooked flatbreads wrapped in a towel.

  5. 5

    Serve the warm flatbreads with the green chutney on the side for dipping or spreading.

  6. 6

    Optional: stir in a handful of chopped cilantro or a pinch of cumin into the chutney for extra flavor.
