Flatbreads
To make the flat bread combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and bring the dough together. You don’t need to knead this dough. Form it into a ball and place the bowl covered in the fridge.
Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and roll them into balls. Roll out the balls with a rolling pin to roughly a small dinner plate size. Dusting with flour as you go so the dough doesn’t stick.
Heat a fry pan on medium low heat and pan fry the flat breads with a few drops of oil for about 2 minutes each side. Wrap in a tea towel as you go to keep them warm.
Patties
To make the patties combine all of the ingredients into a large bowl and mix well. Using clean hands give it a mix with your hands. It really helps bind everything together.
Shape into the size patties that you like. I made about 12 patties about 6 cm in diameter.
Sprinkle each patty with seeds and fry with a good glug of oil of choice ( I used olive oil) on medium heat for about 3-4 minutes each side
Once the patties are cooked you can cover them to keep them warm while you cook the flat breads.
Herbed Yoghurt
To make the herbed yoghurt combine all of the ingredients into a small bowl, mix well and season with salt to taste.
To serve as a puree mash or blend a patty and top with the herbed yoghurt or plain greek yoghurt
BLW serve as pictured.
