Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 200g self-raising flour
  • 170g Greek yoghurt

Filling

  • 100g feta, crushed
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese
  • Handful of mint leaves, finely chopped
  • 100g spinach, wilted with boiling water, squeezed and roughly chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp black pepper

To Serve

  • 1 tbsp mint sauce
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, combine the self-raising flour and Greek yoghurt. Mix together using chopsticks or your hands until a dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it becomes soft and bouncy. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. Cover with cling film and set aside to rest while you prepare the filling.
  2. Make the filling: In a separate bowl, combine the crushed feta, cream cheese, finely chopped mint leaves, wilted and squeezed spinach, minced garlic, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly incorporated. Set aside.
  3. Divide the dough: Once the dough has rested, knead it again briefly for about 30 seconds. Then slice the dough into 4 equal-sized pieces.
  4. Form the flatbreads: Take one dough ball and flatten it with your fingers to about 3/4 inch thick. Place a large tablespoon of filling in the center. Bring the corners of the dough together to enclose the filling, sealing it to form a parcel. Turn the parcel over so the seam is on the bottom, and gently flatten it with your fingers to about 1/2 inch thickness. Lightly sprinkle with flour and repeat for the remaining dough pieces.
  5. Heat the pan: Place a non-stick dry pan over medium to high heat.
  6. Cook the flatbreads: Carefully place the flatbreads into the hot pan. Fry each flatbread for 3–5 minutes on each side until golden brown, adjusting the heat as needed and flipping once they achieve a golden color.
  7. Prepare the dipping sauce: While the flatbreads are cooking, mix the mint sauce and olive oil in a small bowl to create a flavorful dipping sauce.
  8. Serve: Serve the flatbreads warm or at room temperature alongside the mint sauce for dipping. Enjoy your Feta Spring Flatbreads!

Notes

  • Ensure all water is squeezed out of the spinach before adding it to the filling to avoid soggy flatbreads.
  • If the dough is too sticky after resting, dust with extra flour while shaping.
  • Adjust cooking time depending on the heat of your pan to prevent burning.
  • These flatbreads are best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated gently on a pan or in the oven.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding lemon zest or chili flakes to the filling.
