Ingredients

  • For the flatbread:
  • 500 ml cake flour

  • 2,5 ml salt

  • 2,5 ml good quality olive oil, plus extra to sprinkle over

  • 125 ml water

  • Toppings:
  • 100 g feta

  • Kalamata or black olives, pips removed and sliced

  • onion marmalade (store bought, or make your own, I will share a recipe soon!)

  • a handful fresh rocket

  • salt and pepper, to taste

  • olive oil and balsamic vinegar, to serve

Directions

  • To make the flatbread, place all the ingredients in your stand mixer and knead with the dough-attachment for 15 minutes. You can make it by hand – mix thoroughly and then knead until smooth and elastic. If the dough seems very dry or doesn’t want to come together, add a little bit more water. You don’t want it sticky, it must just come together into a manageable dough.
  • Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Sprinkle flour over a clean kitchen counter. Roll out the dough until flat, about 5 mm thick. Sprinkle some more flour onto a baking tray. Place the dough onto the tray and sprinkle over some more olive oil. Bake 10 to 15 minutes until golden brown.
  • Allow the bread to cool slightly and then get going with the toppings – crumble over the feta, place olives here and there, spoon over the onion marmalade and finish off with a scattering of fresh rocket. Splash on some more olive oil and balsamic vinegar or a balsamic reduction just before serving. Enjoy with a chilled white wine and eat outside if possible!
