Garaasa is a classic Sudanese pan-fried, unleavened flatbread that's really more of a pancake than a bread. But it's served in exactly the same way that bread is.

Ingredients:

500g wheat flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
500ml water
2 tsp salt

Method:

Sift the flour into a bowl then add the baking powder and salt and stir to combine. Now, whilst stirring all the while, add the water until a thick batter is formed.

Heat a dry non-stick frying pan on medium heat then add a ladle full of the batter to the pan and flatten out until evenly spread. Continue frying on medium heat until golden brown on the base then flip to allow it to cook on the other side.
