Ingredients:
2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour or bread flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar (optional)
1 tsp instant yeast
3/4 cup (180ml) warm water
1 tbsp oil or melted butter
Instructions:
Prepare the Dough
In a bowl, mix the flour, salt, sugar, and yeast.
Gradually add warm water and mix until a dough forms.
Knead for about 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Cover and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Shape the Bread
Once risen, punch down the dough and shape it into a round or oval loaf.
Let it rest for 15 minutes.
Cook on Stovetop
Heat a heavy-bottomed pan (cast iron works best) over low heat and lightly grease it.
Place the dough in the pan, cover with a lid, and cook for about 10–12 minutes on one side.
Flip and cook for another 8–10 minut
es until golden brown and fully cooked.
