Something crisp to nibble on. Heady rosemary or nigella seeds can be added for interest and crunch, but the scattering of sea salt is obligatory.
250g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
¾ tsp fine sea salt
120ml water
100ml olive oil
½ tsp nigella seeds or 1 tbsp finely chopped rosemary
For the topping ~
a pinch of flaky sea salt
either a pinch more nigella or a little extra rosemary
1) Sift the flour, baking powder, salt and the rosemary or nigella seeds into a bowl and make a well in the centre. Pour the oil and water into the well and stir in with a spoon until it comes together. When it has formed a ball, knead it gently between your hands a few times.
2) Divide the ball into 3 and roll each one out into a 25cm square onto a sheet of baking parchment. Brush a little more oil on top of each piece, then scatter with either the rosemary or nigella, and the extra salt. Score each square gently with a knife to create lines where it will snap once it has cooked. Try not to cut through the dough if possible.
3) Bake for 5 minutes at 425f/220c/gas mark 7 then reduce the heat to 375f/190c/gas mark 5 and bake for a further 8-10 minutes. The flatbreads are done when they are golden and crisp.
