Spiced Tomato And Chickpea Flatbread Recipe By Tasty

FALAFEL-SPICED TOMATOES AND CHICKPEAS ON FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Tomatoes and chickpeas:
• Combine garlic, sumac, red pepper flakes, coriander, cumin, and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Arrange tomato slices in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and sprinkle garlic mixture evenly over top. Let sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Toss chickpeas and vinegar in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Mash chickpeas with a fork until about half are smashed. Add shallot, parsley, and oil and toss to combine; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Yogurt sauce:
• Combine cucumber, yogurt, mint, and parsley in a medium bowl; season with hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Let sit at room temperature at least 15 minutes.
• Do Ahead
• Yogurt sauce can be made 1 hour ahead. Cover and chill.
• Flatbread and assembly:
• Whisk salt, baking powder, sugar, and 2 cups flour in a large bowl. Add yogurt and stir to combine (the yogurt's acidity ensures a tender texture). Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead until mostly smooth, about 1 minute. Divide into 4 pieces, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest 15 minutes (this will make dough easier to roll).
• Working one at a time, roll out each piece of dough into a round about 1/8" thick. (Don't stress: They don't need to be perfect.) Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium.
• Working one at a time, cook rounds of dough until underside is golden brown and flatbread is beginning to puff, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until other side is golden brown, about 1 minute longer; transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining oil and rounds of dough. Let cool slightly.
• Top each flatbread with yogurt sauce, chickpea mixture, and tomatoes. Drizzle with more oil and season well with salt and pepper.

CHICKPEA MOROCCAN FLATBREAD

Steps:

• At Stage 2 of the basic recipe, mix in the cumin seeds, coriander seeds and chickpeas and carry on through the recipe as normal until Stage 5, when you should divide your batch of dough into 10 pieces. Roll out each of these to 1/4-inch thick and gently pull out into a slightly irregular oval shape. Cook 1 or 2 at a time, depending on how big your oven is, straight away without second proof, directly on the bars of the preheated oven at 450 degrees F. They take about 4 minutes to cook and puff up beyond belief. Allow to cool slightly for a couple of minutes before serving.;

CHICKPEA FLATBREADS WITH BURST TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Place a rack in top third of oven; preheat to 450°F. Whisk chickpea flour, 2 Tbsp. oil, 1 tsp. salt, and 1 cup water in a medium bowl or large measuring cup until combined. Let sit at least 10 minutes and up to 1 hour to let flour hydrate.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a 12" cast-iron skillet over high until shimmering. Pour in exactly half (3/4 cup) of the chickpea batter and tilt to evenly coat skillet. Transfer to oven and bake flatbread until edges are golden brown, 8-10 minutes. Using a large spatula, transfer flatbread to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter.
• Meanwhile, cook tomatoes, garlic, 1/4 cup oil, and remaining 1/2 tsp. salt in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes begin to burst, 4-5 minutes. Stir in chickpeas, oregano, vinegar, and paprika (if using). Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook, stirring often, until tomatoes have burst more into a fully formed sauce, 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter.
• Slice flatbreads in half. Serve with tomato-chickpea mixture, feta, greens, and lemon wedges alongside for squeezing and oil for drizzling.
