1

Add 2 teaspoons of yeast and 1 teaspoon of sugar to 1 cup of warm milk and mix well.

2

Let the mixture sit for at least 10 minutes for the yeast to bloom.

3

Chop and grate 1 green pepper, 1 big onion, 2 garlic cloves, and 1 carrot.

4

In a bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt, and mix well.

5

Add the bloomed yeast mixture and the grated vegetables to the flour mixture and mix until combined.

6

Add 1/4 cup of milk to the dough to make it soft and sticky, then mix well.

7

Add oil to the dough and mix until incorporated.

8

On a floured surface, add 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour and knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth.

9

Place the dough in a greased pan, spreading oil on top to prevent sticking, and let it rest for 20 minutes.

10

After resting, shape the dough into balls, aiming for even sizes, and roll them out into flat circles.

11

Preheat a pan while rolling out the flatbreads.

12

Cook each flatbread in the hot pan for 3 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 3 minutes on the other side until puffed and lightly browned.

13

Add oil to the flatbread while cooking to achieve a golden brown color and slight crispiness.

14

If preferred, use melted butter instead of oil after cooking for added flavor.

15

To keep flatbreads soft for longer, wrap them in aluminum foil and store them.
