Sweet potato flatbread

These flatbreads are flexible and robust enough to wrap around generous fillings, even after being frozen and reheated. Thanks to Rachel for this recipe.

  4. Add the flour and knead gently until combined
  5. Divide into 12 equal parts
  6. Heat a large non-stick pan over a medium heat
  7. Dust a portion of the dough with flour and roll out into a circle, adding extra flour if it’s too sticky
  8. Use a rolling pin to transfer the flatbread into the pan and cook for 2 minutes, turning with tongs halfway through
