Easy Flatbread Recipes

EASY FLATBREADS

Steps:

• Add all the flatbread ingredients to a mixing bowl and mix together with a spoon, then use clean hands to pat and bring everything together.
• Dust a clean work surface with flour, then tip out the dough.
• Knead for a minute or so to bring it all together (this isn't a traditional bread recipe, so you don't need to knead it for long - just enough time to bring everything together).
• Put the dough into a floured-dusted bowl and cover with a plate, then leave aside.
• If making the garlic butter: peel the garlic cloves and crush them with a garlic crusher.
• Pick the herb leaves onto a chopping board and finely chop them, discarding the stalks.
• Melt the butter in a small pan over a medium heat, then stir through the garlic and chopped herbs, then set aside.
• Dust a clean work surface and rolling pin with flour, then divide the dough in half, then divide each half into 6 equal-sized pieces (roughly the size of a golf ball).
• With your hands, pat and flatten the dough, then use a rolling pin to roll each piece into 12cm rounds, roughly 2mm to 3mm thick.
• Use a knife to cut 6 lines into the centre of each round, leaving about 3cm at each end.
• Place the griddle pan on a high heat, then once hot, cook each one for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until bar-marked and puffed up, turning with tongs.
• Brush the flatbreads all over with herby garlic butter as they come off the griddle, then pile onto a serving board so everyone can dig in and help themselves.

QUICK & PUFFY FLATBREADS

Steps:

• Combine the flour, baking powder, yogurt and oil with 1 tsp salt and 2 tbsp water, and bring together into a rough dough. Tip onto a lightly floured surface and knead for a few minutes until slightly smooth, then divide into four to eight pieces, depending on the size of flatbread you want.
• Heat a heavy-based frying pan over a high heat. To make basic flatbreads, roll the dough pieces out on a lightly floured surface into rough ovals, then fry for 1-2 mins on each side until golden and slightly charred in spots. Alternatively, roll the dough pieces out, brush with a little melted ghee or butter, and scatter over the cumin seeds, garlic, coriander or chillies, if you like. Fold each piece of dough over on itself, then roll out again into a rough oval and cook in the same way.
• Brush the flatbreads with a little melted butter or ghee, then serve.
