Easy Yoghurt Flatbreads

Easy Yoghurt Flatbreads

These are really simple to make, very forgiving, and perfect alongside dips or used to wrap your favourite fillings.

Ingredients

• 8 heaped dessert spoons plain flour (white, wholemeal, or spelt all work well)

• 6 heaped dessert spoons full-fat Greek yoghurt

• A pinch of salt

Method

1. Add all the ingredients to a bowl and bring together into a dough.

2. Knead until smooth, around 8–10 minutes.

3. Cover the dough and place in the fridge to rest for at least 30 minutes. This helps relax the dough and makes it easier to roll out.

Shaping & Cooking

When you're ready to cook:

1. Divide the dough into 6 pieces.

2. Roll each piece out to approximately 8 inches across. Don't worry too much about the exact size, but make sure they're rolled thinly. If they're too thick, they'll be more like chapatis and can feel quite heavy. Flour your work surface well to prevent sticking.

3. Heat a heavy frying pan until hot.

4. Add a small amount of oil, then wipe it out so only a light coating remains. You're seasoning the pan rather than frying.

5. Place a flatbread into the pan. When it starts to puff up, flip it over and cook the other side.

6. The flatbread is ready when the dough is no longer translucent. Keep an eye on it as it cooks quickly and can catch if left unattended.

To Serve

Stack the cooked flatbreads on a plate and cover with a clean, damp cloth to keep them soft.

Flavour Ideas

The world is your oyster—try adding herbs and spices to the dough before kneading. Some of our favourites are:

• Nigella (onion) seeds

• Fresh chillies

• Chopped coriander

• Chopped parsley

Tips

• Make ahead and freeze for later.

• Enjoy cold or quickly reheated.

• Don't worry about perfection—rustic flatbreads are often the most delicious.
