Ingredients

  • 300g self raising flour

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 300g full fat plain yoghurt

  • ½ tsp salt (optional)

  • To serve:

  • Melted butter (optional)

  •  

Method

  1. Sieve the flour, baking powder and salt if using and pour in the yoghurt. With a fork, bring the mixture together to a dough - it will be sticky. 

  2. Leave the dough covered with a tea towl for 20 minutes to rest and preheat the oven to low. 

  3. Heat a heavy bottomed pan over a medium heat. Divide the dough into 12 pieces and stretch with the palm of your hand into teardrop shapes. If stretching the dough makes you worried, just use a rolling pin.

  4. Cook the bread on the dry pan until scorched in spots on each side (about two minutes a side) and stack on a warmed oventray covered in tin foil until ready to serve. 

  5. Just before serving, brush with melted butter. 

    Note: Once you have mastered your dough, feel free to flavour it with whatever you like.
