I'm Faiq. How are you all doing? My
prayer is that Allah keeps my dear viewers always smiling and laughing in their
homes. With that little prayer, let's start today's fun, healthy, and easy Flat-Bread
recipe.
Ingredients & Soaking
To make this power-packed Flat-Bread, you'll first need whole green beans
(mung beans) - I used half a cup. Wash them thoroughly 4–5 times with clean
water, then soak them overnight so they double in size. By morning, they should
be well-soaked and soft - soft enough to mash easily between your fingers.
You can also soak them for just 2–3 hours if you're short on time. If
you're making the Flat-Bread in the morning, soak the beans the night before;
if making it at night, soak them that morning.
Making the Batter
Once soaked, drain the water, rinse the beans again thoroughly, and drain
once more. Add the beans to a blender jar (the kind used for milkshakes) or a
mixer jar. Then add:
- 2
whole green chilies (washed)
- 3–4
garlic cloves (peeled and washed)
- ½
inch piece of ginger
- Half
a medium onion, roughly sliced into 2–3 pieces
Add just enough water to help blend the mixture smoothly - don't add too
much, or the dough will become too soft later. Blend everything together,
keeping the water quantity minimal.
Preparing the Dough
Transfer the blended mixture into the bowl you'll use for kneading. Now
add the spices:
- ½
tsp crushed red chili flakes
- ½
tsp turmeric powder
- 1
tsp salt (adjust to taste - if you have blood pressure concerns, reduce
accordingly)
Then add:
- 2
small green chilies, finely chopped
- 1
small onion, finely chopped (about 4–5 tablespoons)
You can also add other vegetables of your choice, like carrots, bell
peppers, or tomatoes - whatever you prefer. Adjust the green chili quantity
based on your spice preference; the amount used here was moderate, not too
spicy.
Add:
- A
pinch (2–3 pinches) of ajwain (carom seeds), crushed lightly by hand
- Fresh
coriander leaves
Now add the flour - about 2 cups, added gradually as needed. Mix the
flour into the blended beans mixture to form a dough, adding it little by
little.
Tip: Keep the water content low when blending the beans - if you use too
much water, you'll need more flour to compensate for the dough consistency.
Knead the dough until it's slightly firm - this helps the Flat-Bread
hold together well without tearing. You'll likely need around 2 to 2.5 cups of
flour total, though this can vary.
If the dough sticks to your hands, apply a little cooking oil to your
hands and the dough instead of water (water will make the dough too soft).
Knead for 2–3 minutes until smooth using the oil.
Let the dough rest for about 5 minutes.
Rolling and Shaping
Divide the dough into small balls. Clean your countertop or rolling
surface, dust with a little dry flour, and place a dough ball on it. Flatten it
slightly, then sprinkle a bit of kalonji (nigella seeds) and fresh coriander on
top - this adds both flavor and a nice appearance. You can also add white
sesame seeds for extra aroma and taste.
You can flatten the Flat-Bread using your hands or a rolling pin -
hand-flattening works especially well here, as the dough doesn't stick and
results in thin, even Flat-Breads.
Cooking the Flat-Bread
Heat a tawa (griddle) on medium flame. Once ready, place the shaped Flat-Bread
onto it. Let it cook for about 2 minutes, or until the top surface looks cooked
through, then flip it.
While one Flat-Bread cooks, prepare the next one the same way -
flattening, adding coriander, kalonji, and optionally sesame seeds. Continue
this process for all the Flat-Breads.
Once you see a nice color develop on the Flat-Bread, you can press it
gently with a cloth or tongs to help it cook evenly, or lightly cook it
directly on the flame if preferred.
Serving Suggestions
- For
breakfast: Add a bit of ghee or butter on top.
- For
lunch: You can simply enjoy it as is, lightly
toasted.
This delicious, power-packed Flat-Bread is beneficial for children,
elderly people, and young adults alike - everyone can enjoy it. Try to make and
eat this Flat-Bread every day or every alternate day for the best results.
If you have leftover dough, you can store it in the fridge for later
use. Serve this Flat-Bread with pickle, salad, raita, or tomato chutney - or
simply enjoy it on its own. It's genuinely tasty and satisfying.
