Method

Flatbreads are super simple to make, quick to cook and taste delicious served straight from the pan. The perfect accompaniment to grilled meat or veg, they can be prepared on an open-fire or in your kitchen at home. We have found that they are also a really fun and easy recipe to get the kids involved!

  1. Sift the flour with the bicarbonate and optional spices into a large bowl.
  2. Add the salt followed by the yoghurt and combine into a nice soft dough. If the dough is too sticky add a touch more flour.
  3. Leave the dough to rest for 5 minutes.
  4. Take the dough out of the bowl and place on a floured work surface. Divide the dough into 8.
  5. Roll each piece into a ball and using a rolling pin roll a few millimetres thick.
  6. Heat a large frying pan/griddle pan/BBQ and dry fry your flatbreads, turning every few minutes.When they begin to puff up they’re ready!
  7. Place the flatbreads onto a plate and cover with a tea towel until serving so that they don’t dry out.
  8. Serve on a large serving board so everyone can dig in and help themselves!
