Make the flatbread dough – In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients (the flour, yeast, sugar, baking powder, mixed herbs and salt until there are no lumps. Pour in the lukewarm water and olive oil and bring the mixture together to form a dough ball (ensuring to incorporate every part of the mixture). Place the dough ball on a lightly floured surface and knead for 6-10 minutes until the ball bounces back when pressed. Place the ball back in the bowl, cover and leave somewhere warm for at least 30 minutes.
Make the lamb topping – Crumble the tempeh into small pieces using your hands. Peel and dice the onion and garlic. Place a large saucepan over medium heat and add the olive oil Add the diced onion, garlic and a pinch of salt. Mix well and cook for 5-10 minutes until the onion begins to soften. At this point, add the spices and crumbled tempeh with a dash of water Mix well and cook for 5 minutes, then stir through the mint jelly Halve the lemon and squeeze in some lemon juice, catching any pips in your free hand. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 10 minutes.
Make the mint yoghurt – Thinly slice the mint leaves. Put the yoghurt in a small bowl and mix through the mint jelly, sliced mint leaves and a pinch of salt. Halve the lemon and squeeze in some juice, catching any pips in your free hand. Spoon into a small serving bowl.
Cook the flatbread – Place 2 large flat pans over a medium heat (over separate flames) Take the flatbread mixture from the bowl and halve it. Place each piece on a lightly floured work surface and push down using your hands or a rolling pin to create a round, flatbread shape it should be quite thin as it will become thicker in the pan. Once the pans are hot, add the flatbreads and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden all over and cooked through If you don’t have two flat pans, cook the flatbreads in one flat pan, one at a time.
Assemble the flatbreads – Place the flatbreads on 2 serving plates and brush with some butter. Spoon the lamb mixture on top of the flatbreads then drizzle over some mint yoghurt
Time to serve – Chop some mint leaves and sprinkle them over the top of the flatbreads, along with a pinch of black pepper, the pomegranate seeds, pine nuts and chilli flakes (or your favourite toppings)
