Avocado Flatbread: How To Make A Delicious, Nutritious Meal

Ingredients

  • 1 avocado
  • 2 green chilies
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1.5 cups whole wheat flour plus extra for dusting
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • Salt to taste
  • Avocado oil to smear on the dough (can substitute with olive oil)
  • Butter
Roti, Chapati, Bread, Flatbread

Instructions

  • First, cut your avocado in half, take out the pit, and scoop out the avocado pulp. Mash it well in a small bowl and add lemon juice.
  • Next, finely chop the garlic and add it plus the green chilies and salt to the bowl and mix well.
  • Add the whole wheat flour to the mixture and mix until you have a pliable dough that is not sticky. The recipe calls for 1.5 cups of flour, but add more slowly if your dough is still sticky. Do not add any water.
  • Once your avocado flatbread dough is at the desired consistency, smear oil on top of the dough. Leave the dough to rest for 30 minutes.
  • After the 30 minutes is up, make small, round balls out of the dough. Take the dough balls one by one, dusting each with wheat flour then flatten into a disc.
  • Place each disc in a pan on medium heat and cook on one side. When you start to see bubbles, flip it over and cook the other side. Smear butter on both sides and transfer to a plate and serve.
