How to Make Aldeburgh Flatbread

  1. Activate the yeast: In a large bowl, cream together 1 teaspoon of active dry yeast with 1 tablespoon of honey. Add 1 cup of warm water and mix until combined.
  2. Proof the yeast: Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of flour over the yeast mixture and let it stand for 15 minutes, or until frothy and doubled in size.
  3. Combine dry and wet ingredients: Add 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of salt to the bowl. Pour in 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  4. Knead the dough: Mix until a ball of dough forms. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead with the heel of your hand for 5-8 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  5. Add the flavor: Incorporate 1 teaspoon fennel seeds, 1 teaspoon crushed coriander seeds, 1 tablespoon dried thyme, 1 tablespoon dried marjoram (or basil), and 2 finely chopped green spring onions into the dough.
  6. Knead until evenly distributed: Knead for another 3 minutes, until the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the dough. Avoid adding too many ingredients, as this can make the dough difficult to knead.
  7. First rise: Flatten the dough into a rough rectangle or circle. Let it rise for 15 minutes in a lightly oiled bowl.
  8. Cook the flatbread: Preheat your grill pan, BBQ grill, or frying pan over medium-high heat. Grill the flatbread for approximately 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
