Ingredients
- 2 cups potato flour (fine, sifted)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 cup warm water (about 110°F/43°C)
- 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (for dough) (plus extra for cooking)
- 6 ounces feta cheese (crumbled)
- 1 large eggplant (skin will be charred and removed)
- 1/2 cup labneh (plain strained yogurt)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 large garlic clove (minced)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon hot smoked paprika
- 1 dash regular paprika
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for dip)
Instructions
Make the dough
In a large bowl combine potato flour and kosher salt. In a separate cup dissolve the active dry yeast in the warm water, let sit 5 minutes. Add the yeast mixture and 2 Tbsp olive oil to the flour and stir with a fork until a shaggy dough forms.
Time: PT5M
First rise
Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let the dough rise at room temperature until roughly doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
Time: PT30M
Divide and fold in feta
Lightly oil the bowl, turn the risen dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide into eight equal pieces. Flatten each piece, place a generous pinch of crumbled feta in the center, then fold the dough over and pinch the edges to seal. Twist the sealed dough onto itself to create a small ball and let rest 10 minutes to relax the gluten‑free dough.
Time: PT10M
Roll and pan‑cook flatbreads
On a lightly oiled surface roll each ball into a thin circle (about 6‑inch diameter). Heat a skillet over medium‑high heat, brush lightly with olive oil. Cook the flatbread on the first side until bubbles form and the underside is golden, about 2 minutes, then flip and cook the other side another 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and keep warm while you finish the remaining pieces.
Time: PT32M
Temperature: medium‑high heat
Char the eggplant
Place the whole eggplant directly over an open flame or under a broiler. Turn every few minutes until the skin is completely blackened and the flesh is soft, about 10 minutes total. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let steam for 5 minutes to loosen the skin.
Time: PT10M
Temperature: high heat
Prepare the dip
Peel the cooled eggplant and mash the flesh in a bowl. Stir in labneh, chopped parsley, minced garlic, lemon juice, kosher salt, ground cumin, hot smoked paprika, a dash of regular paprika, and 1 Tbsp olive oil. Mix until smooth and adjust seasoning to taste.
Time: PT10M
Serve
Arrange the warm feta‑stuffed flatbreads on a serving platter and spoon the smoky eggplant‑labneh dip alongside. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.
