Ingredients
Scale
- 200g self-raising flour
- 170g Greek yoghurt
- 100g feta, crushed
- 2 tbsp cream cheese
- Handful of mint leaves, finely chopped
- 100g spinach, wilted, squeezed, and chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp mint sauce (for serving)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for serving)
Instructions
- Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, combine self-raising flour and Greek yoghurt. Mix with chopsticks or hands until combined. Knead for 5 minutes until a soft, bouncy dough forms. Cover with cling film and set aside.
- Make the filling: In a bowl, combine crushed feta, cream cheese, chopped mint, wilted spinach, minced garlic, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly, ensuring excess water is squeezed from the spinach.
- Shape the flatbreads: Briefly knead the rested dough again. Slice into 4 equal pieces. Flatten each piece gently to about 3/4 inch thickness.
- Fill and seal: Place a tablespoon of filling in the center of each flattened dough piece. Bring the corners together to seal the filling inside. Turn over and flatten to about 1/2 inch thickness.
- Cook the flatbreads: Heat a dry, non-stick frying pan over medium to high heat. Fry each flatbread for 3-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Prepare serving sauce: While the flatbreads cook, combine mint sauce and olive oil in a small bowl for dipping.
- Serve: Serve the Feta Spring Flatbreads warm with the mint sauce.
Notes
- For best results, knead the dough thoroughly to develop gluten for a soft texture.
- Ensure spinach is properly strained to prevent sogginess in the filling.
- Fry the flatbreads over medium heat for even cooking without burning.
- Feel free to experiment with other herbs or vegetables in the filling.
