Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 5.5 cups (610 g) wheat flour
- 2 glasses (400 ml) warm water
- 2 potatoes, boiled and mashed
Spices and Seasonings:
- 1 teaspoon (7 g) salt
- 1 teaspoon (6 g) baking powder
- 1 teaspoon (3 g) chili pepper
- 1 teaspoon (4 g) red pepper
- 1 onion, finely chopped
Lubrication and Topping:
- 160 g butter
- 7–8 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 egg yolk
Instructions
- Activate the dough’s potential by blending salt, warm water, wheat flour, and baking powder in a spacious mixing vessel until a cohesive mixture emerges.
- Massage the dough vigorously for 10 minutes, transforming it into a silky, supple texture. Drape a cloth over the bowl and allow the dough to relax and develop for half an hour.
- Create the aromatic potato filling by warming olive oil in a skillet. Sauté onions until they become translucent and softened.
- Introduce mashed potatoes, salt, chili pepper, and red pepper to the pan. Stir thoroughly and simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely.
- Calibrate the oven to 180°C, preparing it for the flatbread’s transformation.
- Liberate the dough onto a flour-dusted surface, extending it to a quarter-inch thickness. Distribute the potato mixture evenly across the surface, then artfully roll and shape the flatbread.
- Enhance the exterior with a luxurious egg yolk glaze, promising a golden, appetizing finish.
- Position the flatbread in the preheated oven, allowing it to bake for 25-30 minutes until it achieves a rich, amber complexion.
Notes
- Experiment with alternative flours like chickpea or almond flour for gluten-free options, ensuring a crispy and flavorful texture.
- Boost nutrition by adding finely chopped spinach or grated carrots to the potato filling, creating a more colorful and nutrient-dense dish.
- Swap traditional wheat flour with whole wheat or spelt flour to increase fiber content and enhance the bread’s earthy flavor profile.
- Cool the potato filling completely before spreading to prevent soggy dough and maintain a crisp, well-structured flatbread texture.
