Super soft and easy to make, this 2 ingredient Potato Flatbread is perfect used as a wrap or mopping up your favourite gravy or curry. With no butter oil or yeast used, this is an incredibly delicious flatbread.
This is probably the easiest flatbread EVER!!! I mean with just 2 basic ingredients, it doesn’t get any better or easier than this. Oh hold on a minute, it actually does get better…there is no kneading or resting of the dough required.
In fact the less you handle the dough, the softer the cooked flatbreads will be. Amazing right?
And yes, you can freeze it too. Just stack the individually cooked flatbreads between layers of parchment/ baking paper and freeze. To reheat, just place the flatbreads between paper towels and pop it into the microwave. Warm on the low setting at 10 seconds intervals, until it has warmed enough to your preference.
Do not overheat or this will cause the flatbreads to get stiff. Keep the warmed flatbread covered, so that it remains soft.
Besides the simplicity of this recipe, it is also extremely versatile. You can add chopped chives, dried chilli flakes, herbs and spices to the mix or brush with garlic butter. The deliciousness is endless.
A few tips to ensure perfectly soft flatbreads
Immediately after boiling and mashing the potatoes, add it to the flour. This will help make the flatbreads softer.
Mix the flour and mashed potato together until just combined to form a soft dough. Avoid overhandling the dough.
When rolling out into disks, just lightly dust the board or surface with a little flour as needed. Using too much flour will result in a tough, hard flatbread.
Keep the cooked flatbreads covered with a kitchen towel or foil. This will also help keep the flatbreads softer.
MAKING THE 2 INGREDIENT POTATO FLATBREAD
Start by boiling 3 medium sized potatoes in lightly salted water or season to taste.
When the potatoes are softened, strain out the water and mash the potatoes until smooth.
add flour and the hot mashed potatoes into a mixing bowl.
Mix the flour and the mashed potatoes with a fork to combine and then using your hand, mix and work gently to form a soft dough.
Divide the dough into 6 to 8 equal pieces. Dust a little flour on your board or work surface and roll out the dough thin, about ⅛ of an inch / 3mm.
Heat a non-stick pan on medium low heat and cook for 30 to 40 seconds on each side.
Keep the cooked flatbreads covered with a kitchen towel or foil. This will also help keep the flatbreads softer.
These flatbreads are best served warm.
