Best 6 Cumin Seed Flatbreads Recipes

GRILLED & FILLED CUMIN FLATBREADS

Steps:

• Whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, sumac, chilli and lemon zest in a medium-sized bowl. Add the feta and toss together lightly with your hands. Cover and set aside in the fridge for at least 1 hr or up to 2 days.
• To make the flatbreads, tip the flour into a large bowl with 1 tsp salt and the cumin seeds. Make a well in the centre and pour in the oil and 150ml warm water. Mix together well. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for a few mins until smooth. Leave to rest in a lightly floured bowl for 15 mins. Meanwhile, mix together the yogurt and dill. Season and set aside.
• Divide the dough into four pieces. Roll each one out on a lightly floured surface to the thickness of a £1 coin. Put on the hot grills of a barbecue and grill each side for 2 mins or until puffed up. (Alternatively, heat a griddle pan until really hot and cook the flatbreads one at a time, for 2 mins each side or until beginning to brown.)
• Pile up the flatbreads with the feta, onion, rocket and olives. Drizzle over the marinating oil and the yogurt. To serve, sprinkle over the pumpkin seeds and a little more chilli flakes, if you like.

CUMIN FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Place warm water in bowl of heavy-duty mixer. Sprinkle yeast over and stir to combine. Let stand 10 minutes. Add oil, lemon peel, salt and ground cumin. Using dough hook attachment, gradually beat in flour. Continue beating 5 minutes. Turn out dough onto lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth dough forms, about 2 minutes (dough will be very soft).
• Lightly oil large bowl. Add dough; turn to coat. Cover with plastic and let rise in warm draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F Line 12x18-inch baking sheet with heavy-duty foil. Brush foil with oil. Place dough in pan. Using fingertips, press out dough, covering pan completely (dough will be very thin). Sprinkle with cumin seeds and sesame seeds. Bake until golden, about 30 minutes. Loosen bread from foil. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CUMIN SEED FLATBREADS

Steps:

• Place flour, baking powder, salt and cumin in a food processor. Pulse to mix well.
• Add yogurt and olive oil. Pulse on and off until dough comes together. Remove dough from bowl.
• Divide dough into eight pieces, wrapping each in plastic wrap. Chill 15 minutes or up to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 375ºF (190ºC). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece of dough approximately 18" (46cm) long by 4" (10cm) wide. Dough should be very thin.
• Place dough on prepared baking sheets (you will probably get 2 on at a time). Brush with beaten egg, sprinkle with cumin seeds and salt.
• Bake in preheated oven 20-25 minutes until browned. Cool. Break into pieces to serve or just let yours guest do it.

LOADED HALLOUMI FLATBREADS

Steps:

• Make the crunchy salad: mix all the ingredients together in a bowl.
• Make the dressing: heat the oil in a small frying pan (skillet) over a low heat. Add the chile and ginger and cook for 2 minutes, then stir in the seeds. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Put the yogurt in a clean bowl and stir in the chile, ginger and seed mixture. Season to taste. Gently toss the salad in the dressing.
• Dry-fry the halloumi in a non-stick frying pan (skillet) over a medium heat for 2-3 minutes each side until golden brown and crispy on the outside and softened inside. Remove and drain on kitchen paper (paper towels).
• Warm the flatbreads on a griddle pan or in a low oven and spread them with the hummus. Top with the halloumi and crunchy salad, and dot with harissa. Serve immediately.

CORIANDER AND CUMIN FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Whisk 1 3/4 cups flour and salt in medium bowl to blend. Combine 3/4 cup lukewarm water and sugar in bowl of heavy-duty mixer fitted with paddle attachment. Sprinkle yeast over. Let stand until mixture is foamy, about 15 minutes.
• Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to yeast mixture; beat until blended. Add flour mixture and beat until soft, very sticky dough forms.
• Using rubber spatula, scrape dough out onto generously floured work surface and knead until dough is smooth, adding more flour by tablespoonfuls as needed for soft but still slightly sticky dough, about 5 minutes. Gather dough together and place in oiled bowl; brush dough lightly with olive oil. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, then kitchen towel and let dough rise in warm draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• Combine cumin seeds and coriander seeds in small dry skillet. Stir over medium heat until aromatic and lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Transfer to mortar or spice mill and crush seeds coarsely.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Turn dough out onto floured surface. Divide dough into 10 equal pieces. Roll each piece into ball. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest on floured work surface 15 minutes. Using fingers, dimple each ball, then press and stretch each into 3 1/2- to 4-inch round. Place dough rounds on prepared baking sheets, spacing apart. Brush each round lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle cumin-coriander mixture and parsley over each; press lightly to adhere. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise 30 minutes.
• Prepare barbecue (medium heat) or heat heavy large skillet (preferably cast-iron) over medium heat. Using metal spatula, transfer flatbreads, plain side down, to grill or skillet (work in batches if using skillet) and cook until lightly browned in spots and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to platter.
• Do ahead: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool completely. Enclose in foil and store at room temperature. Rewarm in foil packet in 350°F oven until heated through, about 8 minutes.
• Serve warm.
