Method

01
Start with the flatbread. Mix the yogurt with the yeast & maple and set aside for 5 minutes. Add the oil and egg, whisk well.
02
Add the salt, baking powder and flour to the bowl of a stand mixer and whisk to combine. Add the wet mix and bring together. Knead on medium speed for 8-10 minutes. The mix should come away from the sides of the bowl and form a ball, it shouldn’t be dry. Adjust the flour accordingly as different flours will hydrate differently.
03
Once kneaded, place this in an oiled bowl, covered and set aside for 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.
04
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 210C. Mix the ingredients for the carrots in a bowl with your hands making sure everything is well covered. Tumble onto a lined baking tray and bake 25-30 minutes or until caramelised but with some texture. Set aside.
05
Make the bean smash by adding all ingredients to a food processor and pulse until combined and a little chunky. Taste, adjust the seasoning and set aside.
06
Check the bread. Once proved, weigh the dough and divide into 6 pieces (around 135g each) roll into balls and place on a lined tray. Cover with oiled clingfilm and leave for another hour.
07
Make the sauce by adding the butter, onion, garlic, salt and korma powder to a small pan. Heat over a medium heat and cook for 10 minutes or until everything is soft and fragrant. Add the coriander, lemon & cream and whisk in (it will split but this is normal). Set aside.
08
Make the kasha by adding the buckwheat to a dry pan and heating until golden and smelling nutty. Stir in the salt and set aside.
09
Turn the oven to its highest setting and place a baking tray or pizza stone in to heat up. On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball of dough into a long oval, about ¾ cm thick.
10
Place on the hot stone and cook for about 2 minutes or until puffed up. Cook in batches if required. Brush with oil and sprinkle with nigella seeds and flaky salt. These keep well wrapped in a clean tea towel whilst hot to prevent them from drying out.
11
When ready, spoon the bean mash on a plate and top with the carrots. Drizzle over the sauce and sprinkle with the kasha. Pop the flatbreads on the table and let everyone dive in!
