It's basically just an Indian flatbread. It's not complicated, but it is delicious.

Instructions

Add all ingredients in the order listed above in a bread machine. Close lid and set to "dough cycle".
Once the dough comes together in a ball in the machine (usually no more the 10-15 minutes), if it looks dry or crumbly, add in up to 1/4 cup water. If it looks too wet and sticky, add in up to 1/4 cup more bread flour.
When the bread machine finishes, preheat electric griddle to 350 degrees F. Dump the dough onto a clean and lightly floured surface. Cut round into 6 or 8 equal triangle pieces.
Roll out each individual piece into an oblong shape using a rolling pin.
Coat the griddle with nonstick cooking spray. Place each piece on the hot griddle. When large bubbles for in the dough, it's ready to flip. Cook the other side through. Serve warm.

Notes

Nutrition facts account for this being divided into 6 servings. Dividing it into 8 would change these numbers downward.

When cutting the dough into individual servings, keep the whole ball intact and don't roll out. Slice it into triangle pieces like you're cutting a pizza or a pie. I like using a dough scraper to do this. A pizza cutter works too.

It can take up to 5+ minutes per side, but I've seen it go as quickly as 2. The dough is cooked through when it's medium golden brown on both sides.

When rolling, if the dough is sticking to the rolling pin, lightly flour the tops of the dough pieces as well.
