Description
The main bread of the North Caucasus is flatbreads known as churek. In our recipe, we make churek with kefir and corn flour, although they can sometimes be made with wheat flour. It's best to fry the flatbreads in butter, and at the end of cooking, cover the skillet with a lid to allow the bread to rise.
