These skillet kefir flatbreads stuffed with ham and cheese make a quick dinner with no rising or baking required. Grated cheese is mixed into a dough made with kefir, flour, a little baking soda, and sugar. The dough is shaped into balls, filling is tucked into the center of each, and the balls are flattened into flatbreads. They are then pan-fried in oil until golden on both sides. You can vary the filling or even try a sweet version.

Instructions
Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.
- In a bowl, mix the kefir with the salt, baking soda, sugar, and cheese. Gradually mix in the flour.
- Shape the dough into small balls. Place filling in the center of each, then seal and flatten into a flatbread, keeping the filling enclosed.
- Pan-fry the flatbreads in oil until golden on both sides.
Tip: Shape the balls with floured hands and use only enough filling to allow the dough to seal tightly around it; otherwise, it may tear when flattened.
