For a richer flavor, try using bread flour instead of all-purpose flour.
If you don't have Greek-style yogurt, plain yogurt works as a suitable substitute.
Make sure the skillet is hot before adding the dough to ensure proper browning.
Wrapping the cooked bread in a towel helps to keep it soft and pliable.
