Gluten Free Pumpkin Garlic and Chilli Flatbreads
Recipe by Anjula Devi
Ingredients
- 250g Eurostar Gluten Free Mediterranean Style Flatbread Flour
- 1 small pumpkin, cut into wedges
- 1tsp ajwain seeds
- Sea salt to taste
- 2tbs rapeseed oil
- 2tsp cumin seeds
- 6 garlic cloves, chopped finely
- 2-3 green chillies, chopped (these are optional)
- 2 large banana shallots, chopped finely
- Fresh coriander, chopped and including stalks
- Zest of one large lemon
- Oil for brushing
- Dry flour for rolling
Method
- Pre heat the oven to 200 degrees
- Place the pumpkin in a roasting tray, sprinkle over the ajwain seeds and sea salt place in the oven for 30 minutes or until the pumpkin is nice and tender
- Place a pan on a medium heat, add the oil and allow to warm. Reduce the heat to low, then add the cumin seeds and allow the seeds to sizzle in the pan for 1 minute. This is important because you want the seeds to release their volatile oils and aromas
- Now add your chopped garlic and fry for 1 minute, then add the green chillies and fry for a further 1 minute.
- Add the shallots and sauté for 4 minutes, then add salt to taste
- Switch off the heat, add the fresh coriander and stir well
- Place the ingredients in a bowl, add the zest of one lemon and stir well
- Add the gluten-free flat bread flour and start to mix with a spatula
- Once you see dough forming use your hands to knead the dough and create a soft pliable dough
- Now you just need to roll out the flatbreads (see video)
- This dough will yield around 10 delicious flatbreads
- Enjoy them as snacks or accompaniments. They can be enjoyed with anything, not just Indian food. You can even add your own favourite herbs & spices.
