Ingredients

• All-purpose flour - 200 grams
• Water - 120 ml
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Instant yeast - 5 grams
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Feta cheese - 100 grams, crumbled
• Fresh mint leaves - 20 grams, chopped
• Garlic - 1 clove, minced
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1/2 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, and salt.
2. Gradually add warm water and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the flour mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for 15 minutes.
5. While the dough is rising, mix the crumbled feta, chopped mint, minced garlic, black pepper, and paprika in a bowl to create the topping.
6. After the dough has risen, divide it into two equal portions and roll each portion into a flat disc about 1 cm thick.
7. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
8. Cook each flatbread for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
9. Once cooked, remove the flatbreads from the skillet and top each with the feta and mint mixture while still warm.
10. Serve immediately, garnished with extra mint if desired.
