Instructions
- Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the lukewarm water, leave for 5 minutes, then mix with the flour, salt and olive oil.
- Knead for 8 minutes until you have a smooth, elastic dough, cover and leave to rise for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, fry the sliced onion and garlic in a little oil, then mash the beans and mix them with the onions, spices and salt.
- Divide the dough into 4 balls, flatten each into a disc, place a portion of filling in the centre and seal by pinching the edges into a ball.
- Roll each ball out with a rolling pin into a 5 mm thick flatbread, taking care not to break the filling.
- Cook the flatbreads dry in a hot, lidded pan for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until golden and puffed. Serve hot.
Variations and tips
Sweet version. Replace the filling with cherry or quince jam, and dust with icing sugar as they leave the pan.
