3. Knead the Dough:
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes, covered with a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out.
4. Divide and Shape:
After resting, divide the dough into equal portions depending on the size of bread you want. Roll each portion into a ball and then flatten it into a disc about 1/2-inch thick.
5. Cook the Bread:
Heat a small amount of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place one dough disc in the skillet and cover with a lid. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side, until golden brown and puffed up, then flip and cook the other side, covered, for another 2-3 minutes.
Repeat with the remaining dough discs, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Tips for Perfect No-Oven Bread:
Consistent Heat: Maintain a consistent medium heat to ensure the bread cooks through without burning. Adjust the flame as necessary.
Use a Lid: Covering the skillet helps to create an oven-like environment, which is crucial for helping the bread to cook through and puff up properly.
Serving Suggestions: Enjoy this bread warm with butter, use it for sandwiches, or pair it with your favorite dips and spreads.
