Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm water and allow the yeast to activate and froth (around ten minutes). Add the olive oil.
In a bowl, mix 250g (2 cups) of flour with the salt and pour the liquid in and stir until a dough forms. Add more flour, only as necessary. If you'd like some. Knead the dough until it is soft (around 5-10 minutes). Place the dough back in the bowl and leave in a warm place to prove for around 1-2 hours.
Knock back the dough and form into four balls of pretty much equal size and then roll into circles of about 1/4 inch thickness.
Place on a prepared baking tray and leave to rest for about 15 minutes. Heat the oven to 220°C (425°F).
Bake the flatbread for around 10-15 minutes, until they have risen and started to brown. Remove them from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve them warm with a tasty filling or as an accompaniment for a soup or stew, or allow to cool completely and then slice to make a regular sandwich. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
I use fresh yeast for my bread. If you are unable to get hold of it, or would prefer to use dried yeast, check out the advice from Make Bread.
