Prepare the Dough:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder.
Add the vegetable oil and mix until the flour absorbs the oil.
Gradually add the warm water, mixing continuously until a dough forms.
Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.

Prepare the Stuffing:
Grate or finely chop the cheese.
Mix the cheese with the dried oregano in a bowl.

Assemble the Flatbreads:
Divide the dough into equal portions.
Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it into a circle using a rolling pin.
Place a portion of the cheese and oregano mixture in the center of each circle.
Fold the dough over the filling, sealing the edges with a little water if necessary to ensure they don’t open while cooking.

Cook the Flatbreads:
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Place the stuffed flatbreads in the pan and fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown.
Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Serve:
Serve the flatbreads warm, garnished with a sprinkle of dried oregano or fresh parsley for extra flavor.

Serving Suggestions

Serve these flatbreads with a side of Greek yogurt, hummus, or a fresh cucumber and tomato salad for a complete meal.
Enjoy them as a snack with a drizzle of olive oil or a spicy dipping sauce.
For a more filling meal, serve them with a bowl of lentil soup or vegetable stew.
Tips

If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour to achieve the right consistency.
Make sure the edges are well sealed to prevent the cheese from spilling out during frying.
To make these flatbreads even crispier, you can brush them with a little olive oil before frying.
You can add a little garlic powder or chili flakes to the filling for added flavor.
