Ingredients
- 350g Self-raising flour plus extra for dusting
- 350g Natural or Greek yoghurt
Method
- Add the flour and yoghurt to a large mixing bowl and combine with a spoon until the ingredients start to come together, then use your hands to form a dough.
- Dust a work surface with flour, and tip the dough out of the bowl onto the surface. Knead the dough for a couple of minutes - it doesn’t require extensive kneading, just enough to form a ball. (If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour to the work surface and your hands whilst kneading).
- Dust some more flour onto a rolling pin, then divide the dough in half. Divide each half into 4, for thinner flatbreads, or 3, for thicker flatbreads.
- Roll out the flatbreads to your desired thickness. Slightly thicker than a pound coin is good with curries and soups, slightly thinner works well for wraps and dipping into hummus. If the flatbreads stick, jut use a light dusting of flour to assist in rolling them out.
- Once all the flatbreads are rolled out, place a non-stick pan or griddle pan on a high heat, and cook your flatbreads in the dry pan for about a minute on each side. They should puff up and start to bubble when they’re ready to flip.
- Pile the flatbreads up on a plate as you cook them and keep them under a clean tea towel. This ensures they stay warm and fluffy for when you’re ready to serve!
